The John Weld Peck Federal Building is located at 550 Main Street in downtown Cincinnati and you have to pass through security to see the murals. You can see pictures of the murals and of Harper working on them in Todd Oldham's Charley Harper: An Illustrated Life.

How cool is that?
ohmigosh! I'm from Cincinnati (now live near Charlotte) and have a collection of Charley Harpers. Now I'm homesick! Thanks for posting this!
He would have made a great quilter....
I love this mosaic. Another notable example of Mid Century mosaics are Millard Sheets' works for Home Savings and Loan Buildings during the 60s. They are often overlooked gems dotted all over Southern California.

This is amazing. I work at the 580 Building which is directly across the street from the federal building. I will have to stop by to see the murals in person tomorrow on my way to lunch.
I love Charlie Harper
I'm ashamed to admit that I didn't know this existed, and I'm from Dayton and my husband is from Cincinnati! I even have an autographed first edition of "Charlie Harper's Birds and Words"...next trip up to visit the in-laws, I'm seeing this in person!
I love to quilt and all I can think is how beautiful this would look quilted! On a side note, if you want to see some beautiful mosaic work, check out the Cathedral basilica of St. Louis. I stopped by there passing through St. Louis and it is such an aww inspiring site! http://cathedralstl.org/intro/
Ah, Charley Harper's birds! I had all but forgotten him... Takes me back to Cincinnati in the 70s, where I grew up. If your parents had a "Harper" print -- or and original, that was big stuff. Thanks, AT!
I'm glad everyone enjoyed my photos! A few other Harper tidbits for all you fans out there...
The Cincinnati Art Museum has an exhibit of his original illustrations for Ford Times magazine. If you're familiar with his "Horseless Carriage" series of Ford Times prints, a few of these original paintings/collages will be familiar to you, but most were never reproduced outside the magazine itself. The exhibit is up through the end of this week:

Fabulous Frames & Art is a Cincinnati-based store that is the largest dealer of Harper artwork in the world. I wrote about them for AT a couple of years back:

Lastly, check out this incredible story about a Harper fan who has a prosthesis covered in his artwork:

Oh, wow. I want to go to there.
Funny -- I was thinking knitting rather than quilting. One square-one stitch.
