In the landscapes of Wolf Kahn (American, b. Germany 1927-2020), vivid, improbable, yet harmonic colors awaken powerful sensory delights—the sensation of sun on the back of one’s neck, the scent of chlorophyll or hay dust, the cool shade of the forest understory, the crackling sound of autumn leaves shaken by a breeze, the tranquility of an empty meadow or woodlot. A quartet of Kahn’s landscapes, evoking the four seasons, have been chosen for this notecard collection.

In his long, remarkable career, Wolf Kahn (American, b. Germany, 1927–2020) created hundreds of landscape paintings that effuse glowing color, inviting us to experience light and trees, barns and rivers in new ways. Kahn was a maverick in how he filled the canvas. (He once said, “I enjoy making something austere and dramatic out of the color pink.”) His unique approach of employing spontaneity while creating representational scenes produced a body of work that is as pleasurable as it is deeply moving. Among his many accolades are a Fulbright Scholarship, a Guggenheim Fellowship, and US State Department International Medal of Art. His work is regularly exhibited at galleries and museums across North America and can be found in the collections of many leading institutions.
