Elizabeth Savage (print historian)

Dr Lauren Elizabeth Savage is a British, American and German art historian, bibliographer, curator, and printer specialising in western late medieval and early modern printing practices. She is a leading authority on how information was printed 1400–1600, especially in Europe, and how conventional print historical methodologies can be enriched with practical recreations at historic printing presses and heritage science. She is best known for her research into the early history of colour printing techniques across diverse kinds of content, including text, image, and music,[1] and into the materials of western print heritage, including colour printing inks and woodblocks.[2]

Education

A National Merit Scholar, Savage took a BA in Art History and Literature from the University Professors Program, Boston University, where she studied with Saul Bellow, Geoffrey Hill and Rosanna Warren, in 2003. Following a certificate in French Language and Culture from the Sorbonne, she took an MA in History of Art at the Courtauld Institute of Art, supervised by Joseph Koerner, in 2005. After working at the Warburg Institute, she took a PhD at King’s College, Cambridge, supervised by Jean Michel Massing, in 2013. Her PhD thesis won the annual Wolfgang Ratjen Prize “for distinguished research in the field of graphic arts” from Conivncta Florescit/Germany’s Central Institute for Art History.[3]

Career

Savage’s first career was in PR and Marketing, working in the London head office of creative luxury and design-led brands including Dior and Swarovski. She specialised in contemporary art collaborations, including exhibitions and installations at design fairs. As outreach, she trained contemporary artists in curatorial practice and exhibition design, including serving as Curator/Visiting Lecturer for the MA Photographic Studies, University of Westminster, 2006–2013.[4]

While completing her PhD, Savage was a keyholder to the rare book vaults at Cambridge University Library as Munby Fellow in Bibliography, as well as Research Fellow, Darwin College, Cambridge, in 2012–2013.[5] As a postdoc, her work at the John Rylands Research Institute, University of Manchester, was highlighted in Nature,[6] and she then held a British Academy Postdoctoral Fellowship, Faculty of English, Cambridge University with a Postdoctoral By-fellowship, Churchill College, Cambridge.[7]

In 2016, she joined the School of Advanced Study, University of London, the “UK’s national centre for the promotion and facilitation of research in the humanities.”[8] She currently serves there as Senior Lecturer in Book History and Communications, Head of Academic Research Engagement at Senate House Library, and module leader for the London Rare Books School.[9] She had held honorary affiliations at the Warburg Institute (2013–2014); History of Art, Cambridge University (2013–2018); and Centre for the Study of the Book, Bodleian Libraries, Oxford University (2020–present).[10]

Savage co-founded and directed the Printing Colour Project (2009–2018), which supported £600,000 in grant income and blockbuster exhibitions that engaged 350,000 members of the public in the history of colour printing in the west.[11] For the Printing Historical Society, she serves on the Grants & Prizes Committee (2016–present) and Publications Committee (2017/-present). For the Association of Print Scholars, she was a founding jury member of the Grants Program (2017–2019) and serves on the Grants Committee (2023–2024).
