Synopsis

In January 1973, the Art History Department of the University of Cincinnati in cooperation with the Contemporary Arts Center organized an exhibition, "Art Deco and the Cincinnati Union Terminal," which heightened the interest to save one of the most prominent examples of Art Deco in the nation, and reemphasized the significance of the murals in which Reiss had displayed his feeling for brilliant colors, his love of the decorative elements, and his ability to see any subject as a model for a work of art and which his son Tjark termed his father's grandest effort. "He assumed that he was working for posterity that's why he put so much into it." - from the Introduction by Dottie L. Lewis, Editor
