Benton Mural Restoration


Benton Mural Restoration

Thomas Hart Benton's glorious "Century of Progress" murals have been on display at IU since 1941. Now a portion of the 22-panel work is part of the IU Cinema. During construction, panels had to be removed and safeguarded. See how conservators from the Indianapolis Museum of Art restored the work to its former glory.
