My name is Theresa Marie Ketterer. I started working at the Beach as Assistant Registrar in January. I enjoy the friendly environment and diverse collection at the museum. Before coming to Manhattan, I was at the Institute of Fine Arts, New York University, completing my MA in Art History and interning at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. In the past, I worked for the Art Institute of Chicago, Illinois State Museum Chicago Gallery, and Gilcrease Museum. In 2012, I received my BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and since then, I have continued to make art myself. My artwork usually takes the form of abstract drawings of animals overlapped with symbols from a variety of cultures in ink on paper. As an undergraduate exchange student, I studied studio art at the Bauhaus Universtität-Weimar. In graduate school, I served as a student archaeologist and draftsman’s assistant on archaeological excavations in Selinunte, Sicily.
