American School Project Receives Anonymous Collection of Original Works

An anonymous collector recently shared a precious collection of detailed renderings and blueprints from the American School era with the College of Architecture. The large collection came bundled in several tubes, with dozens of beautiful, original and copied drawings–some on rolls more than 20 feet long! Among the collection are stunning copies of the original Bavinger House design by Bruce Goff and the Prairie House design by Herb Greene. We can’t wait to feature a portion of this collection in the 2020 American School exhibition at the Fred Jones Jr. Museum of Art!

If you would like to contribute materials to the American School exhibit, such as original drawings, models, or works of art created by a student or alumnus of the OU College of Architecture under Bruce Goff or Herb Greene’s leadership, please fill out our Qualtrics form.
