- 37c #3910a - Guggenheim Museum, Frank Lloyd Wright, Architect.
Masterworks of Modern American Architecture.
Spectacular works of architecture in New
York, NY; Atlanta, GA; New Canaan, CT; Chicago, IL; Exeter, NH; Los Angeles,
CA; New Haven, CT; Philadelphia, PA; and Washington, DC are immortalized on
U.S. postage stamps honoring Masterworks of Modern American Architecture.
Each building is depicted through a stunning photograph on the sheet of
twelve 37-cent stamps. The stamps were dedicated in Las Vegas during a
special ceremony as part of The American Institute of Architects Annual
Convention and Design Exposition at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino.
"If the power of architecture is to
imagine, create and transform, then its form should inspire," said Anita
Bizzotto, Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer, U.S. Postal
Service, who dedicated the stamps. "It should elevate the things of
everyday life- from commerce, to learning, to living- into the realm of the
extraordinary. And Masterpieces of Modern American Architecture
celebrated on these postage stamps do just that."
"This honor confirms the enduring power of
architecture to elevate the human experience," said Steidl. "Each
building in the series embodies the creativity and commitment of architects
to help create better places for people to live, work and play."
Guggenheim Museum, New York.
