Stephanie Elaine Pogue (1944–2002)[1] was an American professor, printmaker, artist, and curator. Her artistic interests included the portrayal of women and the human figure.[2]
Personal life[]
She was born in Shelby, North Carolina, but was raised in Elizabeth, New Jersey. She attended Syracuse University and graduated from Howard University with her Bachelor of Fine Arts and Cranbrook Academy with her Master of Fine Arts.[3][4] She died at age 58 at the Mariner of Laurel health care facility on November 12, 2002 from cardiac arrest.[5][4]
Career[]
Pogue was the protegee of artist David Driskell, who was also her undergraduate instructor at Howard University.[5] Upon her graduation from Howard University in 1966, she attended Cranbook Academy of Art in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, with a Master of Fine Arts degree in Printmaking. She worked on the faculty of the Department of Art at Fisk University from 1968 until1981. She was a gallery director and an art professor who taught printmaking, drawing, and art appreciation.[4] She left in 1981 to work at the University of Maryland as an associate professor of printmaking, drawing, and papermaking.[4] As a recipient of two Fulbright-Hays cross cultural fellowships, granted in 1981 and 1986, Pogue traveled to India to study architecture and to Pakistan to study traditional arts and crafts.[2] In 1982 she received the first of many CAPA awards from the University of Maryland, singled out for her advanced study in color etching techniques. With a strong color sense, a preference for simple geometric (sometimes architectural) shapes and the technical ability to push the traditional boundaries of printmaking, Pogue created a body of work that was exhibited museum, galleries, and universities nationally and internationally.
