Ken Kerslake
Fine artist Ken Kerslake (1930–2007) was, according to Dr. Tom Dewey of the University of Mississippi,"one of a handful of printmaker-educators responsible for the growth of printmaking in the southeast in the years following World War II."〔Dr. Tom Dewey is the archivist for the Southern Graphics Council and a professor of art history at the University of Mississippi. He was quoted in the article "Ken Kerslake - Printmaker" at http://www.artschools.com/interviews/ken-kerslake Accessed 6/26/09〕 Kerslake's teaching career was spent at the University of Florida in Gainesville, which honored him with the title of Distinguished Service Professor Emeritus after his retirement.
He was born in Mount Vernon, New York. In 1958, fresh out of college, Kerslake was hired by the University of Florida to develop a printmaking program for its art department. He did that and went on to have a thirty-eight-year teaching career at the University of Florida. Kerslake was a founding member of the American Print Alliance and was very active in the Southern Graphics Council, serving as that body's president from 1990 to 1992.
==Education==
Kerslake started drawing as a small child and began to consider fine art as a career in high school. His formal study of art began in 1950 at Pratt Institute in New York City, where he was encouraged by teachers Philip Guston (1913–1980) and Roger Crossgrove (b. 1921). With the latter's encouragement, Kerslake transferred to the University of Illinois in Champaign in 1953, where he received both the Bachelor and Master of Fine Arts. There he discovered his medium when he took an intaglio printmaking course with Professor Lee Chesney,〔Lee Chesney (b. 1920) had been a student of Mauricio Lasansky at the University of Iowa〕 a mentor who was to become a lifelong friend. Kerslake enjoyed his first teaching experiences as a graduate assistant to Chesney. Soon after receiving his master’s degree in 1958 Kerslake accepted a faculty position with the School of Art and Art History at the University of Florida in Gainesville.〔Ken Kerslake, “A Life in Printmaking, Professional & Academic Perspectives (interview)”, reprinted from ArtSchools.com by () accessed 3/06/02〕
Intaglio printmaking was Kerslake’s primary medium, but he also produced series of prints in lithography and vitreography. In the final years of his life he also experimented in computer-generated imagery, creating ink jet prints that he used alongside more traditional techniques. Kerslake did not limit himself to printmaking media only; he also painted throughout his career.
