Episode Synopsis

Color and Figure, on display now at The Bakersfield Museum of Art, marks Linda Christensen’s first solo museum exhibition and showcases nine paintings made between 2015-2020. Belonging to the Bay Area Figurative movement's rich tradition, Christensen's work is dynamic and an amalgamation of spontaneity, historical reference, and emotional milieu. Tune in as we sit down with the artist to discuss the Bay Area Figurative movement and her commitment to using color and gesture to capture the emotional weight of the figure.
