ART AND ARCHITECTURE

Picasso once said, "Art is a lie that tells the truth." He was quoted in Ken Burns' American Stories. In this episode, Frank Loyd Wright is reviewed and his works analyzed. It ends with an interview of Wright.

Interviewer: Are you afraid of death?

Wright: Not at all. Death is a great friend.

Interviewer: Do you believe in your personal immortality?

Wright: Yes. Insofar as I am immortal, I will be immortal. To me, young has no meaning. It's something you can do nothing about. Nothing at all. But youth is a quality, and if you have it you'll never lose it. And when they put you into the box that's your immortality.
