Description
In s3e24, host Ann Shafer speaks with Steve Goddard, curator emerita from the Spencer Museum of Art at the University of Kansas in Lawrence. Steve’s specialty is prints of northern Europe (1450–present), although he has been known to stray into the graphic arts of the World War One era, as well as prints that sit at the intersection of art and the biological sciences. I’m sharing some of his favorite prints here. A beloved educator, Steve has inspired generations of students with his engaging and insightful approach to teaching. His connoisseurship and history of prints classes are legendary. Platemark listeners will have heard several guests remark on Steve’s passion and energy for print lore. In fact, he is that particular professor for many people—the one that got them into art history. Now retired and living in Estes Park, CO, Steve continues to research and write on favorite topics, and he is making prints himself. Steve Goddard and Dick Field deeply looking at John Martin’s The Assuaging of the Waters, 1840, at the Legion of Honor Museum, Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, during a Print Council of America conference, 2018.
