Russel and Mary Wright, two visionaries who defied the norms of their time, created a modernist haven in the Hudson Valley of New York. Their home, Dragon Rock at Manitoga, was a place where ambiguity thrived and the spirit could flourish amidst the natural world. The Wrights were individualists who rejected the strict confines of modernism, which did not embrace the complexities of ambiguity or the beauty of the natural environment. Their unique blend of New York City, the sublime Hudson Valley landscape, commercial mass production, handmade nuance, Japanese aesthetics, American ideals, queer attraction, and family yearnings formed the foundation of their architectural, design, and environmental achievements.
This captivating journey, beyond mere exploration of space, delves into the story of the creation of a haven where the spirit could truly thrive. To unravel the complexities of the Wrights' architectural, design, and environmental achievements, four archives have been synthesized: the estate of the Wright family, The Center for Photography at Woodstock, The Russel Wright Design Center at Manitoga, and the Russel Wright Papers at Syracuse University. Through a clarion voice, this partnership is examined, shedding new light on their profound influence and cultural relevance.
Dragon Rock at Manitoga stands as a testament to the Wrights' unwavering commitment to individuality and their belief in the power of the natural world to inspire and nurture the spirit. It is a place where the boundaries between art, architecture, and nature blurred, creating a sanctuary that continues to captivate and inspire generations to come.
