The Saint Louis Art Museum’s former curator of prints, drawings and photograph, Elizabeth Wyckoff organized several exhibitions that vary from old master to contemporary prints, books, and drawings. In 2018, she co-curated the exhibition “Graphic Revolution: American Prints 1960 to Now.” She also co-curated “Learning to See: Renaissance and Baroque Masterworks from the Phoebe Dent Weil and Mark S. Weil Collection” (2017); “A Decade of Collecting Prints, Drawings, and Photographs” (2016); and “Beyond Bosch: The Afterlife of a Renaissance Master in Print” (2015).
Wyckoff previously worked at the Davis Museum and Cultural Center, Wellesley College, the New York Public Library, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art; and she received her doctorate from Columbia University with a specialization in early 17th-century Dutch prints.
