Father and Son Masters in Mosaics Shine in Revival
Mosaic art, once reserved for churches, is resurging in offices, hotels, theaters, and schools. In the United States about 90 percent of major works are by St. Louis father and son duo John and Arno Heuduck who began in Berlin and now oversee a shop with 9,000 tesserae shades. Their cathedral project in St Louis adds to a portfolio across New York, Chicago, Boston, and more, aiming to finish after 15 years with 68 000 square feet of mosaics and 100 million glass pieces in over 10 000 colors.
