Note: "this is my primary interest. I am always trying to get to the danger point, where color either becomes too sweet or too harsh; too noisy or too quiet." - Wolf Kahn
Wolf Kahn is a dynamic colorist, applying, in the case of this monumental landscape, the "quiet" side of his explorations with color, abstraction , and particular luminosity. He studied with Hans Hofmann, taking valuable lessons with him but not yielding his unique take on the American landscape.
