Photographer Michael Moran has been documenting Philip Johnson’s spread in New Canaan, Connecticut over a period of several years. The result can be seen in a privately printed book, of only 2,000 copies, that has become a collectors item.
Michael Moran talks about the evolution of the book.
arcspace is very excited to be able to show you Michael Moran’s photographs of "The Glass House"; one of the most famous houses in America.
Part One of the exhibition is "The Glass House" alone. Part Two will show several of the individual structures, on the 40-acre landscaped complex, Philip Johnson has built since he purchased the first lot in 1946.
"The house forms a nucleus of 40- acre landscaped complex that contain many other structures. Michael Moran’s photographs present the Glass House in this greater context, and demonstrate that neither part - the house nor its surroundings - would make sense alone".
