| Wolf Kahn - Gallery One is pleased to present a selection of masterful artworks by Wolf Kahn. Wolf Kahn is widely regarded as one of America's most prominent and influential landscape painters. An intense involvement with light and color dominates his paintings, and redefines the world of nature. Wolf Kahn was born in Stuttgart Germany in 1927 and immigrated to the United States in 1940. In the late 1940's he studied painting at the famous Hans Hofmann School in New York -- a breeding ground for ambitious painters. Wolf Kahn in the 1950's emerged as a member of the representational wing of a wave of abstract expressionism. His art continued to evolve and by the late 1960's had emerged into fully chromatic mature works. Kahn's paintings today offer a successful resolution of the language of abstraction together with the perception of landscape. A group show will also be exhibited in conjunction with Kahn's show. |
