This looks like a great exhibit. Currently it is at the Cleveland MOA, and I had hoped to see it but don't know if I will be able to make it before it leaves. Has anyone else had a chance to see it in their area?

Hi, I saw it at the Brooklyn Musuem of Fine Arts (or whatever its exact name is) last December and it was very good with a lot of works that I hadn't seen before. It reflected the era in that you saw the beginning of art deco, a transition to a focus on workers and the machine age, and, more broadly, the verve of post-WWI optimism. If possible and since you are interested, I would recommend going.

I will definitely try to do that. I see there's a book out with the artworks from the exhibit as well.

I bought the book - and I don't always do that - well worth the money.
