Oil paint on heavy tar paper. Hand signed and dated verso. Joan Kahn (USA 1953-) grew up in New York City; Princeton, New Jersey; and Vermont; in an environment that patronized the arts. At home her father, a professor, and mother, a state economist and homemaker, collected nineteenth and twentieth century drawings and prints, Middle eastern rugs, and ceramics, pewter, and old tools. Her grandfather, Max Westfield, was an academically trained portrait painter and her great uncle was a well-known gallery owner and art dealer in pre-World War II Germany. One of the influential experiences of Joan’s youth was visiting her grandfather in his studio in Tennessee where the family had first immigrated. Growing up near New York, and spending a year in Paris during high school, provided formative visits to museums and galleries. Joan was academically talented in grade and high school, but after her father’s death during her first years at university she found herself concentrating on studio and history of art. It was a subject above others absorbed and concentrated her focus. Influential in Joan’s development and later work are the historic movements of the Bauhaus and Modernist design and architecture, geometric art and design of diverse cultures, Color Field Painting. Many artists have had a impact on her work, such as Paul Klee, Piet Mondrian, Sonia Delaunay, Mark Rothko, Ad Reinhardt, Antoni Tapies, David Smith, John McLaughlin, Tony Smith, Louise Nevelson, Robert Mangold, Ellsworth Kelly, Agnes Martin, Valerie Jaudon, Jasper Johns, James Turrell, Robert Irwin, Vija Celmins, Caio Fonseca, Peter Halley, Ed Moses, Juan Usle, and Nancy Haynes...

Surrealist underwater painting in oil on canvas featuring a female swimmer surrounded by jellyfish and flowing marine vegetation in deep ocean hues. This dreamlike underwater scene by Sula Repani captures a suspended moment beneath the surface, where a lone female figure glides among jellyfish and sea currents. Painted in oil on canvas, this surrealist marine composition blends figurative clarity with gestural abstraction, evoking serenity, transformation, and immersion in nature. The palette of sea green, cobalt blue, and soft turquoise creates a layered aquatic space, vibrant yet meditative. Rooted in her Mediterranean heritage and shaped by her Galician surroundings, Repani’s practice often explores the relationship between body and water, myth and reality. This underwater oil painting...
