Model maker Paul Bonfilio will discuss the re-making of Fallingwater on a reduced scale: in 1984, the Museum of Modern Art commissioned Bonfilio to create an architectural model of Fallingwater for its permanent collections. The two-year process of researching and fabricating Fallingwater in scale gave Bonfilio, a professionally trained architect himself, new insights into Wright’s genius and the building’s integral relationship to the natural environment. Bonfilio documented his experience on film and in a book, signed copies of which will be available to visitors after the presentation.
