Kevin Salatino joined the staff of LACMA in 2000 as Curator and Head of the Department of Prints and Drawings after a nine-year tenure as Curator of Graphic Arts at the Getty Research Institute. He has published and lectured widely here and abroad in his areas of expertise, and has curated numerous exhibitions, including Picasso’s Greatest Print: The Minotauromachy in all its States; The Prints of Ed Ruscha: A Selection from the Gift of Jane and Marc Nathanson; Dürer to Rembrandt: Master Prints from the Herman and Ruth Engel Collection; and Rauschenberg: Posters. In 2004, he curated and wrote the catalogue for the exhibition, Van Gogh to Picasso: 19th- and 20th-Century French Master Drawings from LACMA, which traveled to Italy. His most recent articles include “Ensor in LA: Cathedrals and Catharsis” and “Fuseli’s Phallus: Art and Erotic Imagination in Eighteenth-Century Rome,” both published this year, and his book, Incendiary Art (1997), will soon appear in a revised French edition. He is organizing the forthcoming exhibition Flowers of Evil: The Fantastic and Grotesque in French Art, 1850–1900, and is writing a book about the erotic drawings of Henry Fuseli (1741–1825). He received his BA from Columbia University and his PhD from the University of Pennsylvania, and has taught at Middlebury College and the University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Salatino has just been appointed Director of the Bowdoin College Museum of Art in Brunswick, Maine. He assumes his new responsibilities in August of this year. |
