New podcast by Humanities Kansas features artist Patricia Dubose Duncan and her work in the Beach Museum of Art’s collection with commentary by Linda Duke.
This new podcast, part of a series celebrating the 50th anniversary of Humanities Kansas, covers environmental issues on two very different fronts. Roughly the first half deals with a history of resistance to creating storage sites for nuclear waste in Kansas. During the 22nd minute of the program, a new subject is introduced. It describes the role of Patricia Dubose Duncan in the establishment of the Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve and the remarkable merging of that quest with her work as an artist. Her mixed media work Red Prairie with Bison (image below) in the collection of the Marianna Kistler Beach Museum of Art is cited as an important example.
