建築之夢—Frank Lloyd Wright賴特著述精選Ask any ten people on the street to name an architect—any architect, living or dead—and chances are pretty good that most would reply, “Frank Lloyd Wright.”It’s hardly surprising, of course, that six decades after his death, Wright (1867 – 1959) remains America’s, and perhaps the world’s, most recognizable architect. Aside from the unassailable brilliance of his creations (the breathtaking Fallingwater and the Guggenheim Museum alone would have assured his legend) and the almost unimaginably scandalous life he led (open infidelity; the abandonment of his wife and his six children; outrageous cost overruns on projects; public conflicts with his patrons),Wright himself was, physically and stylistically, a memorable man. With his white mane of hair and his consciously striking sartorial sense, he hardly sought to avoid attention.Wright was a genius, and like most geniuses, he wanted the world to notice him and his works. Here, on the anniversary of his landmark Guggenheim Museum in New York opening to the public for the very first time (Oct. 21, 1959), LIFE.com does just that—we pay attention to the man and celebrate some of his signature creations.For its part, LIFE magazine paid tribute to Wright and to his eye-popping 5th Avenue museum this way, in its Nov. 2, 1959, issue:Last week, six months after he died, the spirit of Frank Lloyd Wright came triumphantly to life again in New York City. The revolutionary art museum he designed for Solomon R. Guggenheim was finally opened to the public. While it was under construction, the museum was the constant butt of jokes. Its cylindrical exterior was likened to everything from a washing machine to a marshmallow.The inside of the new Guggenheim Museum proved to be far more sensational than the outside. To the visitors who streamed through, it seemed like the inside of a giant snail shell. . . . The museum was greeted with a barrage of praise and protest. Architects hailed the “fantastic structure,” museum directors complained of the slanting floors and walls. An art critic called it “America’s most beautiful building,” a newspaper labeled it a “joyous monstrosity.” Everyone agreed on one thing—the building was definitely dizzying. This physical reaction would have pleased Wright who predicted, “When it is finished and you go into it, you will feel the building. You will feel it as a curving wave that never breaks.”A curving wave that never breaks. Coming from a man who was inspired by the myriad forms and shapes found in nature for much of his protean career, that simple statement is perfectly apt—and still, all these years later, somehow comfortingly true.Related Topics: Architecture, black and white photography, Design, Frank Lloyd Wright, Guggenheim Museum, New York City

■作者/譯者/編者．簡介： 弗蘭克‧勞埃德‧賴特（Frank Lloyd Wright，1867—1959），舉世公認的20世紀偉大的建築師、藝術家和思想家，現代建築的 創始人，和勒‧柯布西耶、密斯‧凡‧德‧羅、格羅皮烏斯並列為世界四大建築師，被譽為是當代建築界的先驅之一。 可以毫不誇張地說，在他之後，美國還沒有別的建築師可以與他相比。路易士‧康、埃羅‧沙裏寧、凱文‧羅歇、貝聿銘、菲利 浦‧詹森都不能與他相比，即使上述這些人加在一起，他們在建築藝術上所具有的影響，也比不過賴特不尋常的七十二個年頭的建 築職業生涯所造成的巨大影響。
■內容簡介： 建築之夢：弗蘭克‧勞埃德‧賴特著述精選》由弗蘭克‧勞埃德‧賴特編著。 有關弗蘭克‧勞埃德‧賴特的書籍浩如煙海，其中很多都是他所做文章和演講稿的選本——從作品全集，到有關某些主題的文集 和選集，前者讓人望而卻步，後者則關注範圍較窄，或者選材較泛。《建築之夢：弗蘭克‧勞埃德‧賴特著述精選》所選十五篇文章 來自賴特最有影響力、最發人深省、最具持久魅力——更不必說具有可讀性了——的著作，它們是賴特於1900年至20世紀30年代所寫 的文章，就像他當時的建築作品一樣，在歐洲和美國產生了巨大的反響，影響了現代運動的發展歷程。 賴特是20世紀建築界的浪漫主義者和田園詩人。他的草原風格成為20世紀美國住宅建築設計的基礎。他設計的作品以對本質的深 刻理解和以形式與細節的相互烘托為主旨。他看到自然界的結構存在著類似的關係，而將他的作品稱為“有機建築”。 他不同於歐洲的那三位建築大師——他們忽略空間的中心作用和人的參與欲望，而賴特則在空間中充分考慮到人的存在，考慮建 築與環境的有機結合。他提倡建築形式多樣化，較早地否定了風行世界的國際式方盒子建築形式，給後來的美國建築思潮和世界各國 的建築發展以深刻的藝術上的啟發。

Dyson job cuts: One third of vacuum company's UK workforce to go

Dyson to cut 1,000 jobs in the U.K.

以生產吸塵器聞名的英國公司 Dyson 周二（23日）宣布，準備斥資25億英鎊（折合約 254 億港元）在新加坡設立電動車廠，預計廠房將於 2020 年落成，目標於 2021 年起生產首批電動車 ...
歐洲動態
以吸塵機而聞名的英國公司 Dyson 宣佈，他們生產電動車的首間廠房將落戶新加坡，2021年可生產出第一輛電動車。
公司創辦人 James Dyson 公開支持英國脫歐，因此不少英國人立即指摘他口說支持脫歐，但以行動證明不信任脫歐後的英國製造業。不過， Dyson超過10年都沒在英國生產，在英國的員工只負責科技研發及行政，因此Dyson電動車不在英生產，也不完全令人意外。

你以為戴森只是生產電風扇和吸塵器嗎？
說到戴森（dyson）(sic)這個牌子，大多人第一反應都是那個極具未來感的無線吸塵器，以及看上去十分神奇的無葉電風扇。做為家電品牌，戴森的口碑無疑是很好的，問題在於產品真的很貴，以至於有些時候你會懷疑它是不是…
