Bochner is one of the leading figures in the development of Conceptual Art. He emerged at a time when painting was increasingly discussed as outmoded, and artists were beginning to break with Abstract Expressionism and traditional compositions. Bochner has consistently probed the conventions of both painting and language, the way we construct and understand them, and how they serve as codes that underpin our engagement with the world and one another. His work has been the subject of solo exhibitions at the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C., Art Institute of Chicago, and Yale University Art Gallery, among others.

The FIGS Protective mask is engineered from lightweight fabric, is machine washable, and features three layers of protection, including a super soft two-ply cotton-blend jersey liner and BFE (Bacterial Filtration Efficiency) with a PM2.5 activated filter.
