Bart Prince

Prince was born in New Mexico and is a graduate of Highland High School and Arizona State University. He opened his own practice in Albuquerque in 1973.^[1] He counts as his architectural inspirations: Frank Lloyd Wright, Antoni Gaudi, and Bruce Goff, the latter to whom Prince was a former student and assistant.^[2] He accounts the inspiration for his individual creativity to Claude Debussy and Pablo Picasso.^[3]

Prince worked closely with Bruce Goff when they were associate architects on the Pavilion for Japanese Art in Los Angeles from 1978 to 1988.^[4]

Prince's great-grandfather was L. Bradford Prince, the governor of New Mexico Territory from 1889 to 1893.^[1]
