Wolf Kahn's Art
Wolf Kahn works in oils and pastels. His works usually covers the subject of landscapes and his own personal vision of nature. His convergence of light and colour has been described as combining pictorial landscapes and painterly abstraction.
Ameringer & Yohe, his gallery, state (in the biography on his official website)
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.
