« CONTEST: Name This Beast
Down the Rabbit Hole: Behind the scenes of The Strange World of Albrecht Dürer »

And the beast’s name is…

October 18, 2010 by The Clark

As the curator of The Strange World of Albrecht Dürer and the guest judge of the “Name This Beast” contest, I want to thank everyone who entered a name (or two or three!) for Dürer’s many-headed beast.

I had a blast reading your fabulous names during my lunch break on Friday. We had 67 entries, and they were so great that I couldn’t stop at just one winner, so I chose one winner and six runners up in honor of our friend’s seven heads.

The runners up:

Susan St. Pierre—Horrosept

Michael Eade—Siebenkönigausländerischmonströs

Lisa Paris—Fred

César Cn—Blasphenomenon

Richard Johnson—Revelalypse

Laura Szczepanik—Monstercolia I

and our grand-prize winner is…

Christine Ciskowski, who has named the beast

Sir Ravenous

Congratulations to all, and hope you’ll come meet Sir Ravenous in person!

—Jay A. Clarke, Manton Curator of Prints, Drawings, and Photographs

    It was so fun to participate in the contest!!! … I couldn’t resist in participating and concocted a name for the Dürer monster… I want to express how much I value the Clark’s exhibitions as informative inspirations into my own studio work.
