The vast marble lobby at 2601 Parkway features a remarkable mural created by American painter and longtime professor at New York’s Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art, Nicholas Marsicano, and Dutch ceramicist, Francis Serber. Both were members of the U.A.A., a historic labor union formed in 1934 by artists employed under the Federal Art Project of Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal. The mural runs the length of the lobby. It depicts the history of humanity from early civilizations, through Classic, Middle, and Renaissance Ages, present-day, and a glimpse of the future. The motif of “progress” had precedents at several World’s Fairs of the 1930s. While the mural depicts a western narrative, it is much more ethnically inclusive than most others of this period. Influence of the Surrealist and Avant-Garde movements in art and design gained momentum in North America in the late 1930s. Many artists, including Marsicano, were known for their depictions of the female form. This influence is evident in 2601’s Lobby ceiling design, which features a stylized and curvaceous abstraction of the female form, also reflected in the floor tile pattern below.
