The Philadelphia Museum of Jewish Art is delighted to welcome back Tobi Kahn, internationally acclaimed as a painter and sculptor. For thirty years, Kahn has been steadfast in the pursuit of his distinct vision and persistent in his commitment to the redemptive possibilities of art. In pain, stone, and bronze, he has explored the correspondence between the intimate and monumental. While his early works drew on the tradition of American Romantic landscape paintings, his more recent pieces reflect his fascination with contemporary science.
