Wolf Kahn 2017 Calendar

Wolf Kahn (American, b. Germany 1927) uses the seen world as a point of departure, a starting place for his investigations into the push and power of harmonic colors. Paradoxically, given that he often works in nearly violent colors, his paintings are wonderfully tranquil; exercises in chromatic tension and formal movement, they are also sharply evocative of real-world wooded hillsides and weathered farm buildings. Even as the viewer is pleasurably stunned by Kahns big, bold colors, the sensation of sun on the back of ones neck and the woodsy scent of fallen leaves are present and strong.
