Artist and Wichita State professor Ronald Christ has recently had two Wichita museums acquire his works. WSU's Ulrich Museum of Art has obtained Christ's "Night Fires" (1988), while the Wichita Art Museum has acquired Interior with "View of Gubbio, Midday" (1991).

Christ is professor of painting and drawing at WSU, where he has taught since 1976. A native of St. Louis, he studied at the Kansas City Art Institute and Indiana University, Bloomington.

His work has been shown in more than 50 solo and group commercial gallery exhibitions, in a number of curated museum shows, numerous invitational exhibitions, in Italy as part of grant-supported and teaching activities, and in many juried exhibitions. He is represented by Duane Reed Gallery in St. Louis and The Gallery at Artworks in Wichita.
