Artist: BERNARD A KOHN (American 1905-1989)

Title: 'Abstract with Figures'  (unframed original gouache 1964)

Description:  We have a small selection of original work by the American abstract expressionist painter and printmaker, Bernard Kohn, who was born in Philadelphia and lived there for most of his life.  Kohn was also very interested in music and poetry and he illustrated poems by Garcia Lorca, St John Perse and others.  He also published music.

Bernard Kohn's work was exhibited at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the National Serigraph Society, the American Colorprint Society (of which he was a member), Boston Printmakers etc, and he had one man shows in Philadelphia, New York City and Reading, Pennsylvania.  His work is held in several public collections including the Art Institute of Chicago.  He visited England and France on many occasions from the 1930s onwards, and spent much time in London over an extended period.  He also worked in Cornwall.

This stunning abstract gouache is on thick Winsor and Newton board and the image size is about 15 x 22 inches. It is unframed and in excellent condition. The gouache is signed and dated (19)64. We think this work may have been executed in Britain...
