Fire and Water, and Air and Earth: Eric Hilton utilized the graceful lines of Art Deco to suggest the powerful forces driving earth and the cosmos. These massive glass panels, the largest of the artist’s 30 year career, dramatically transform the light in the lobby through the use of lead crystal inserts and delicate etching.
