Bart Prince, whose buildings stand from Ohio to Hawaii, is internationally recognized for embodying the American tradition of individualism in architecture originating with Louis Sullivan, Frank Lloyd Wright and Bruce Goff. The study of Prince and his architecture as an open-ended process if cultural discovery and experimentation shifts attention from theoretical abstractions like organicism to what Prince believes to be architecture's proper subject: the experience of place produced when an architect responds to the practical and psychological realities of the client, programme and budget in the context of a particular site.
