Bill Kohn is a longtime resident of Skinker DeBaliviere.
His home is on 61xx Kingsbury and his studio graces Four Corners, also on Kingsbury.
His work has been shown on numerous occasions in St. Louis.
He is known for his large, colorful landscapes that depict his travels to India, Peru, Paris, and many other sites. Governor Holden recognized his artistic contributions by awarding him the 2002 Missouri Arts Award, the state’s highest honor for achievement in the arts. Kohn received the award at a ceremony on February 13 at the Capitol Rotunda in Jefferson City.
The governor’s wife, Lori Holden. introduced Kohn and called him St. Louis’s arts ambassador.
He is also professor emeritus at Washington University. Kohn’s work can be found in numerous public and private collections.
This coming fall, the Washington University School of Art will honor Kohn with a retrospective exhibition at the Des Lee Gallery, 1627 Washington Ave.
The show will feature large paintings that trace Kohn’s artistic evolution from abstraction to figuration to landscape, as well as numerous watercolors based on his travels. At the same time, a concurrent exhibition of Kohn’s most recent paintings — inspired by Bunelleschi’s Duomo in Florence—will take place at the Elliot Smith Gallery in the Central West End. Congratulations Bill!
We all look forward to the fall exhibitions of our noteworthy resident artist.
