The twenty-two buildings and projects &ndash; eleven built works and eleven unrealized projects&mdash;that resulted from Wright&rsquo;s 32 year association with the forward-thinking executives of the once prominent Larkin Soap and mail order company in Buffalo, will be explicated through a diverse set of materials, including building models, plans, photographic documentation, and perhaps most importantly, numerous letters and other correspondence between Wright and his Buffalo patrons. Curated by Jack Quinan, SUNY Distinguished Service Professor in the Department of Visual Studies at UB and a leading Wright scholar whose most recent book, Frank Lloyd Wright&rsquo;s Martin House: Architecture as Portraiture was published by Princeton Architectural Press in 2004, the exhibition will shed new light on Wright&rsquo;s many unrealized projects related to the Larkin patrons as well as the more well-known built projects such as the Larkin Building, the Darwin D. Martin House, and Graycliff, the Martin summer house. Scheduled exhibition tours led by Darwin D. Martin House docents are available at 2pm on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. Private tours are available upon request.

While their Western counterparts tend to have a functional relationship with this digital world, Chinese youth are maintaining deep emotional engagement. The shape of the Chinese digital universe reflects not only new outlets for "release" and "self-expression," but also eternal Chinese cultural imperatives rooted in an individual's relationship with society and craving for acknowledgement. Today, a few brands have started to harness the emotional power of the digital universe. In this lively presentation, Tom Doctoroff examines the world of new media and shows how companies can deepen bonds with young Chinese who are pulled between a polarized desire to "fit in" and "stand out." http://www.slee.buffalo.edu http://www.paglen.com Trevor Paglen is an artist, writer, and experimental geographer.
