Scope and Contents note
Biographical Information primarily contains information about Viktor's artistic and design work. Viktor and his family were diligent record keepers who tracked every art object Viktor created. They created a cross-referenced card file system. The cards list all the exhibitions of Viktor's work both alphabetically by gallery name and chronologically from 1929-1997. A second set of cards lists all objects Viktor created alphabetically by object title. The collection includes photocopies of both sets of cards. These cards facilitated the creation of timelines of Viktor's professional career and exhibitions and an object chronology for 1939 through 1969. The series includes copies of Viktor's patents for his industrial design work and biographical information on Viktor from the Cleveland Institute of Art 1996 exhibition. Lastly, the series contains material gathered for Viktor's nomination for the National Medal of Art.
