Artist Conversation: Tobi Kahn
Monday, February 27, 2023
6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Hear
artist
Tobi
Kahn
in
conversation
with
his
daughter,
writer
and
journalist
Mattie
Kahn,
about
the
spiritual
dimensions
of
his
painting
practice.
Tobi
Kahn’s
OHRA
(2000-03),
a
recent
gift
by
members
of
the
Blaffer
family
to
Public
Art
UHS,
is
on
view
in
the
Health
and
Biomedical
Sciences
Center
Building
at
UH.
Comprised
of
seven
panels,
OHRA
was
created
for
a
non-denominational
chapel
in
the
master-planned
village
of
New
Harmony,
Indiana.
Although
the
chapel
was
never
completed,
Kahn’s
hope
is
that
this
work
brings
inspiration
to
the
campus
community:
“Art
can
be
in
a
place
where
students,
doctors,
people
who
need
health
care,
can
be
uplifted.”
Please
join
us
for
a
reception
and
light
refreshments
before
the
program
begins.
