Kristian Berg
Gendron Jensen draws bones. Detailed precise images of bones. Kicked out of a monastery in his 20's, Jensen spent 17 years as a semi-hermit on a rented farm in northern Minnesota honing his technique - before leaving for a new life and love in the mountains of New Mexico. For more than 40 years, the artist has transformed bones, relics and other 'mortal leavings' into meticulously rendered, often monumental graphite drawings that compel us to look beyond the ordinary to a deeper, more spiritual realm.

Kristian Berg was born in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and grew up on Minnesota's Iron Range. His first professional experience was on the docudrama Foreclosure (1982), a short film made in partnership with a small farm community in west-central Minnesota as a political statement about the farm crisis. In 1989, he joined the Emmy-winning PBS science series Newton's Apple (1983) as a staff producer. He has worked with such talents as Garrison Keillor, Robbie Robertson, Olympic Gold Medalist Scott Hamilton, rock star Ted Nugent, and actors Betty White, Shelley Duvall and Peter Coyote. Kristian has supervised documentary shoots in the United States, Russia, Kazakhstan, Israel, Tahiti, Peru, France and the UK.
