Art Forum Review on Dan Christensen

Jenn McMenemy

In Dan Christensen news, Art Forum's November 2009 issue has a great review on the Christensen show organized by the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art. Dan Christensen: Forty Years of Painting was on view at Kemper from May 15-Aug. 30, 2009 and is now on view at Sheldon Museum of Art from October 23, 2009 thru January 31, 2010.

Sheldon has a great podcast (about 5 minutes) with Sharon L. Kennedy, Sheldon's Curator of Cultural and Civic Engagement, talking about Christensen’s early years in Nebraska and Kansas City. You can download it here or visit their site to listen.

And if you're a Christensen plaid fan, there's a show on view thru Nov. 14th at Spanierman Modern featuring 14 of his plaid paintings. My personal favorite is Dark Tulip, 1970. Dan Christensen: The Plaid Paintings
