Printed in silver, lower left: Why — a portfolio of art posters created by prominent artists. Perhaps because / the City Center stands for an amalgamation of the finest blend of adventurous- / ness in the arts today. This first cultural center operates two theaters, maintains / in residence six performing companies, and produces ballet, opera and drama. / It mounts over 100 theatrical works each year, as well as hosting / major visiting companies from the cultural capitals of the world. / Everything new at the City Center is an experience in unparalleled vitality. And / so, here follows a creative expression embodying the artists’ reflections on / what makes the “beauty run.” It is eminent and logical for the visual arts to / salute the performing arts honoring the 25th anniversary of the City Center of / Music and Drama. / John V. Lindsay, Mayor of New York City
