Kemper ARTcast 5: Relating Jazz to Painting

Dan Christensen, Untitled (1967)
Dan Christensen, Untitled (1967)

Local jazz musician Stuart Ashley relates the practice of jazz music to the studio practice of visual artist Dan Christensen. A new survey of paintings by the late artist (1942-2007)documents Christensen's "never-ending quest to understand the possibilities of color, paint, and pictorial space."
