Andrew Devane (1917/1918 – January 15th 2000) was an Irish architect born in Limerick. He studied architecture at University College Dublin under Rudolf Maximilian Butler where he graduated in 1941. In 1946 he was awarded the Taliesin Fellowship and he left Ireland for the United States to study under Frank Lloyd Wright until 1948. In 1948, he joined Paddy Robinson and Cyril Keefe of the architectural practice of Robinson & Keefe, among whose best known works were Stephen Court and the Irish Life Centre in Dublin, as a partner. Stephen Court was highly recommended in the European Architectural Heritage Year awards for its sympathy with its Georgian surroundings. ==Career== After Devane graduated from UCD, he began working in architecture practice of Robinson & Keefe. After a short time, Devane was offered a partnership with the practice, but decided to postpone any agreement. Around this time Devane made contact with American Architect, Frank Wright Lloyd. In his letter to Lloyd, Devane said "I cannot make up my mind wheter you are in truth a great architect - or just another phony." to which Wright replied "Come along and see." In 1946 Devane travelled to America to attend the Taliesin Fellowship, a private educational institution in which promising architects were given the opportunity to study under Frank Lloyd Wright in Scottsdale, Arizona. Devane grew to admire Wright greatly. In a tribute to Wright, Devane would say of himself and his fellow appetencies that “Each of us lives inevitably (sometimes painfully) in his (Wright’s) “shadow,” because in art and architecture, all of us, including him, live and grow or fade and die, in a light that is god-given.” On his return to Ireland in 1948 he took up Paddy Robinson and Cyril Keefe of Robinson & Keefe on their partnership offer and formed the Robinson, Keefe & Devane architecture practice (Now know as RKD Architects).
