Kenn Kwint: Primitive Marks

Kenn Kwint describes his paintings as “primitive marks on a sophisticated ground.” He initiates his creative practice without any preconceived subject matter, allowing his abstractions and portraits to gradually emerge out of intricate lines and layers of paint. The highly tactile and emotionally charged results testify to Kwint’s passionate love affair with the act of painting. This exhibition of sixteen works spanning several decades shows Kwint to be adept with oils, acrylics, ink, and prints.
