The goal of the Clark Humanities Museum, which opened in 1970, is to give students the crucial opportunity to engage directly with original works of art and other artifacts of material culture related to their courses—an irreproducible experience that sharpens critical inquiry, fosters interdisciplinary thinking, and offers the keen poignancy of authenticity in our increasingly virtual digital age.

Examining a Mother and Daughter’s Relationship Through the Prints, Collages and Artists’ Book of April Katz 

Female identity and labor. The mother-daughter relationship. Time, calendars and distance. Remembrance.

The Clark Humanities Museum and Denison Library are delighted to share the work of artist, printmaker and Morrill Professor Emeritus at Iowa State University April Katz. Katz’s prints have been exhibited throughout the US, and Katz served as president of the Southern Graphics Council. The items displayed were recently donated to Scripps College and form part of Denison Library’s collections related to women’s lives and their accomplishments. This exhibition was curated by Jennifer Martinez Wormser ‘95, Director and Sally Preston Swan Librarian for the Ella Strong Denison Library.
