WOLF
KAHN: Oils
more oils | pastels
WOLF KAHN is one of the most important colorists working
in America today. With pastels and oils, Kahn creates vivid scenes
that excite the senses. He plays with the curves and wisps of natural
landscapes and sometimes inserts the angular lines of man-made structures.
Kahn experiments with color and season in a way that is abstract, refreshing
and all his own. Wolf Kahn is an influential modern landscape painter
whose work has infused the landscape tradition with a new vitality. The
unique blend of Realism and the formal discipline of Color Field painting
sets the work of Wolf Kahn apart. Kahn is an artist who embodies
the synthesis of his modern abstract training with Hans Hofmann, with
the palette of Matisse, Rothko's sweeping bands of color, and the atmospheric
qualities of American Impressionism. It is precisely this fusion of
color, spontaneity and representation that has produced such a rich
and expressive body of work. Wolf Kahn exhibits at galleries
and museums across North America. Selected museum collections include
Metropolitan
Museum of Art,
New York, NY, Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, NY, Museum
of Fine Arts, Boston, MA, Hirshhorn Museum, Washington, D.C.,
Los Angeles County Museum, Los Angeles, CA.
