The first great achievement in U.S. cross-country transportation was the railroad system, opening doors to places that were previously unexplored. These iron horses connected people to people, encouraged trade, as well as travel, and promoted American expansion. The human desire to be a part of something bigger and to discover more is the true spirit of a pioneer. This ambition and persistence is what Breuer’s art celebrates.
“There is nothing like a dream to create the future.” - Victor Hugo
