Our final podcast in the Artist of the Week series focuses on the California painter Helen Lundeburg (1908-1999). Lundeburg's painting "Untitled (Red Line)" recently came into the collection of the San Jose Museum of Art. For this episode we interviewed Tobey C. Moss, owner of the Tobey C. Moss Gallery. As a close friend of Lundeburg's, and also her representative, Moss was able to provide an intimate look into the life and art of this often overlooked artist.

Thanks for listening to all of our Artist of the Week podcasts. Keep a look out for an Artist of the Month podcast, probably with a with a different title though!

During the 8 week run of the exhibition "New Year, New Gifts", the San Jose Museum of Art will offer each week a podcast highlighting one of the artists in the show.

The artist in the series are: Hung Liu, Jack Zajac, Rick Arnitz, Ruth Asawa, Richard Misrach, Amy Kaufman, Helen Lundeburg and Manuel Neri.

We hope that visitors will download these podcasts and bring their iPods into the museum to experience the works first hand with the audio. However, these are enhanced podcasts and if you own an iPod that displays pictures or if you view the podcast in iTunes, you will be able to view images from the collection and images from the interviews. But you can also just listen to the audio and enjoy the insight that each podcast will provide.
