Rediscovered after twenty-five years, the nearly sixty-foot mural painting by the German American artist Friedel Dzubas (191594) was considered a masterpiece of religious depiction in its time. Crossing/Apocalypsis cum Figuras (1975) renders the Last Judgment from the Book of Revelation as a vast modernist abstract tab_x0002_leau unmatched in scale and impact. Commissioned as the focal point of the lobby entrance to the Shawmut National Bank of Boston, its placement signaled the founda_x0002_tional principle of the buildings design firm, The Architecture Collaborative (TAC). Incorporated in 1945 under the aegis of Walter Gropius (18831969), TAC worked as a group of equals, in Gropiuss words, who would bring our pragmatic requests and our spiritual desires into interplay. Friedel Dzubass Last Judgement: A Masterpiece of Modernist Abstraction considers this monumental mural painting, Crossing/Apocalypsis cum Figuras, as a testament to Dzubass single-minded ambition within the context of secularized modernist painting at the time. Dzubass process of composition is tracked in never-before-seen documen_x0002_tary photography while his magnum opus is re-framed in light of the complex sources of his hidden, if deeply resonant religious convictions.
