THURSTON MUNSON

[edit]

Thurston Munson (1906-1998) was an American artist and architect practicing in Springfield, Massachusetts.

Life and career

[edit]

Thurston Wells Munson was born April 24, 1906 in Greenfield, Massachusetts to Frank Manuel Munson and Dollie Jane (Wells) Munson. He attended the local schools before attending what is now the University of the Arts in Philadelphia. A prize for his work enabled his to travel in Europe, Africa and Asia, continuing to pay his way by painting portraits, including one for . He eventually returned to Paris, where he opened a studio, but returned to the United States in 1929 for a commission. He soon began painting large murals for hotels, restaurants and nightclubs, and in 1935 opened an office for the practice of interior design. This led to larger architectural work. He returned to Massachusetts in 1940, settling in Springfield. He began formally practicing architecture in 1952, when he formed a partnership with engineer A. George Mallis as Munson & Mallis. In the late 1950s they were associated with Alfred E. Reinhardt in the firm of Munson, Mallis & Reinhardt, but otherwise remained associated as Munson & Mallis until 1970. Throughout much of this period they simultaneously operated the firm of Munson, Mallis, Bradley, Patterson & Burgener, engineers, which gradually developed into Mallis's own practice. After separating Munson formed the new firm of Thurston Munson and Associates Inc., which operated until its dissolution in 1983, when Munson retired from architecture.

Trained in fine arts, Munson often provided murals and mosaics for the buildings designed by his firm. Exterior mosaics survive at two of his churches, at Holy Cross R. C. Church in South Portland(1957-58), which depicts the life of Christ, and at Bethesda Lutheran Church in Springfield (1959-60), which depicts Martin Luther. A set of murals which survives was created in 1947 for Adajian's, a Hartford restaurant. He created a series of fourteen murals depicting scenes from One Thousand and One Nights of which thirteen survive. When the restaurant closed in 1986 they were acquired and restored by Munson. They have been in storage since his death.[1]
