The Poetic Exploration of Lunar Themes in Contemporary Art

Why We Recommend it

Scott Kahn’s exhibition at David Zwirner in Hong Kong showcases his enduring commitment to figurative expression, capturing the beauty and banality of everyday life through a unique artistic lens.

Description

Once in a Blue Moon features a collection of new paintings by American artist Scott Kahn that centre around various full moons from the lunar calendar, exploring their rich symbolism and significance. Alongside these recent works, the exhibition includes landscapes from Kahn’s extensive career, many depicting the moon as a subtle yet powerful presence in the background.

This marks Kahn’s first solo exhibition in Asia and offers a rare opportunity to engage with his poetic interpretations of the world, reflecting on themes of light, nature, and human experience. Visitors are invited to immerse themselves in Kahn’s intricate visual narratives that bridge the gap between reality and imagination.
