Biographical History
Stanton L. Catlin, art historian and expert in Latin American art, was born in Portland, Oregon in 1915. After graduating from Oberlin College in 1937 and studying in Czechoslovakia , he became the first Fogg Museum Fellow in Modern Art at Harvard University. He held a series of positions at prominent art institutions across the United States, including the Minneapolis Institute of Arts (1956-1958), the Yale University Art Gallery (1958-1967), and the Art Gallery at the Center for Inter-American Relations (now the Americas Society) (1967-1971), before joining the faculty at Syracuse University (1974-1997), where he would remain for the rest of his career. Catlin contributed to many landmark exhibitions of Latin American art, including Art of Latin America Since Independence (1964) and Diego Rivera: A Retrospective (1986). An expert on Mexican mural painting, he finished a report on Mexican murals in the United States just before his death at his home in Fayetteville, NY in 1997.
