Featuring hundreds of photos of the art on display in Nebraska's capitol building, Creative Genius reveals the meaning behind the artwork, the inspiration of the artists, and the history of the Nebraska capitol building.
Few buildings reveal truths, inspire greatness, and narrate the creation of humanity. Creative Genius documents such a place. The Nebraska Capitol—once called “a peak in the history of building accomplishment”—breaks the boundaries of architecture and art. Steeped in history and lore, the building narrates the creation of the universe and life, as well as the epic journey of the peoples of Nebraska. This book reveals the themes driving the art, chronicles the stories behind artists and their creations, and celebrates the beauty embodied in this influential building.
