- catalog abstract ""This is the untold story of the role played by architect Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959) in the world of Asian art, particularly the art of Japan. It is the saga of Wright's other passion, and of a set of clients who never considered commissioning a building from him. Wright's career as a dealer at one time rivaled his architectural practice in terms of both the attention he devoted to it and his financial gain. This book reveals his intense admiration for some of the most beautiful art in the world, but it is also a tale of rivalry, greed, double-crossing, devious dealings, and acquisition fever."--Jacket.".
