Biography
About
Dr. Eowyn Kerr-Di Carlo earned her MA and CAS in Conservation of Painting at SUNY Buffalo State, and an MA and PhD in Art History at the Courtauld Institute in London, with a specialization on painting and illumination in Early Renaissance Italy. She has worked in conservation and collection management in London at both the Courtauld and the Victoria & Albert; as well as at galleries in Santa Fe, Florence, and Raleigh NC. She is currently a teaching technical art history at West Virginia University. In her role as an art historian, Dr. Kerr-Di Carlo specializes in late-medieval and early Renaissance paining practices with a focus on manuscript illumination. However, her knowledge base from the perspective of technical art history is not confined to a specific period, culture, or geographical region. Instead, Dr. Kerr-Di Carlo is interested in moments of artistic innovation.
