Perkins, curator of collections and exhibitions at Price Tower Arts Center, Bartlesville, Oklahoma, recently returned from the Getty Research Institute, Los Angeles, after receiving a library grant for his dissertation on Eugene Beyer Masselink. In late 2010, Scott edited and contributed an essay on architect Bruce Goff’s designs for interiors in the accompanying book for Bruce Goff: A Creative Mind, an exhibition he co-curated with the Fred Jones Jr. Museum of Art at the University of Oklahoma. His essay, “Air,” accompanied the photographs of Thomas R. Schiff in Wright Panorama: Elements of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Architecture in 360 Degrees (Orange Frazer Press, 2010).

He continues to serve on the board of directors of the Frank Lloyd Wright Building Conservancy and represents Price Tower in their serial nomination of ten Frank Lloyd Wright buildings for consideration as UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
