riday, March 19 1:00 pm EST Join ANS Fellow and Saltus Award Winner Eugene Daub for a look at the artistic side of numismatics. Daub will tell the stories behind eight different portrait medals and speak on his process of creating them. Daub has exhibited extensively and has work in numerous public collections including the Helsinki Art Museum, the Smithsonian Institution and the British Museum. His first sculptural work was for the Franklin Mint and has since created over 40 major monuments in the U.S. Read more about Daub and his work at eugenedaub.com The Long Table sessions are open to ANS members only. A link will be sent to all active ANS members the morning of the talk.
I'm not a member anyway, but I did look at the Saltus award winners and things and was very interested. Not just because of the long list of great artists, but because VDB himself won it, the awards longevity, and the fact it is an alternative spelling of my surname used locally. My family once had the Saltus Bakery sorry for the off topic post, but it certainly is a strange coincidence.
I am not sure you needed membership but I ran accross it looking up something else and realized that it was online and for today! ANd the organization is rock solid.
Actually any coin board could have such meeting with Zoom, which likely, many older and probably all 25 and under, already use it. Maybe an idea for the owner. Jim
