January Monthly Program

  • Thursday Jan 15, 2009
  • "A Child of the Sun"
  • A documentary on Frank Lloyd Wright's use of the sun as a generator of form on the Campus of Florida Southern College
  • Shown at the Historic Alex Theatre, Glendale

Join filmmaker Michael Miner to view his new documentary: the story of the building of the largest single site collection of Frank Lloyd Wright architecture in the world, built between 1938 and 1958.
Like it's predecessor "Sacred Spaces", the film covers the ten built and eight unbuilt structures of the campus in great detail, once again featuring a rich, classical music score of the pieces Wright had acknowledged as his personal favorites.
Explored are Wright's multi-building design concept, the integration of the sun as a critical contributing design element, and the ongoing relationship Wright maintained with the college and it's president, Dr. Ludd M. Spivey.
