Murals by Jeff Huebner

Since 1991 the city of Joliet, Illinois, has commissioned painters for a series of public murals. This title documents the profound transformation in the local mentality wrought by the development of public art in the city.
"Huebner has written a beautiful book.. which is important because it presents the history of an American city that, when examined story by story, is as rich as any other... The murals Huebner highlights chronicle Joliet history as a history of its peoples, the Mexicans and Irish and Germans and Southern African-Americans and others who came together to make what we know as Joliet today... Huebner [here] preseves and documents a project and a community." -- Elizabeth Alexander, The Chicago Tribune
