| Kate Lusheck earned her M.A. and Ph.D. in art history at the University of California, Berkeley, specializing in northern European art of the early modern era. Her research interests focus on seventeenth-century Flemish art, the drawings of Peter Paul Rubens (1577-1640), the classical, humanist tradition in northern practice, and the theory of style.
Dr. Lusheck has taught widely in the San Francisco Bay Area, including teaching survey courses and special topics seminars in Renaissance and Baroque art at Santa Clara University, University of San Francisco, St. Mary's College, Moraga, and the University of California, Berkeley. She has presented papers at the annual conferences of the College Art Association and the Renaissance Society of America, and previously received research fellowships from The Center for Advanced Study in the Visual Arts (CASVA) in Washington, D.C., the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the J. Paul Getty Museum.
She is currently working on a book entitled Rubens and the Eloquence of Drawing, in which she explores the integral relationship between graphic style and humanist content in Rubens' drawings. During the 2007-2008 academic year, Dr. Lusheck will teach courses in the western art history. |
