Story and Photos by Mary Casey-Sturk
Dozens of fans of Harlan Hubbard gathered at the Harlan Hubbard Studio and Preserve today to view works by the artist from the personal collection of David and Debra Hausrath.
The studio was once both the home and studio of the famed artist who spent many years in Fort Thomas. David Hausrath displayed several Harlan Hubbard paintings from his personal collection and shared with guests his passion for the artist.
Examples of paintings included river scenes and Hausrath noted two-sided paintings as he discussed the various artistic styles and medium Hubbard worked with throughout his career.
Harlan Hubbard (1900 –1988) will always be connected to Fort Thomas and remembered for his art, travels, and writing. Bellevue-born Hubbard studied in New York City and later at the Art Academy of Cincinnati. He settled in Fort Thomas in 1919, where he built a house for his mother and himself, a rental house and this studio, which served as both studio and home to Harlan and his wife Anna.
The studio is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and in cooperation with the Fort Thomas Forest Conservancy (FTFC) who manages it, there are periodic programs open to the public.
Missed today’s program? The Behringer-Crawford Museum in Devou Park has some of his paintings on display from their permanent collection.
Want to see the studio? Please note that it is on private property and only open to the public during Studio Dates.
