"In the first monograph dedicated to this important contemporary artist, author Richard J. Boyle chronicles every aspect of Kane's distinguished career, including his education, his early artistic influences, and his public support. Beginning with Kane's days at the Art Students League in New York City, Boyle traces the development of his style and identifies his sources.
While at the League, Kane met the legendary German expressionist George Grosz and the respected American artist and teacher Will Barnet, whose art was very important to Kane's sense of form and space. Boyle relates Kane's travels to Italy, North Africa, and France (Paris and Nice) as he walks in the footsteps of the great masters who have inspired him: Turner, Delacroix, Cezanne, and Matisse. These varied influences easily meld in his art, and manifest themselves in a vibrant palette, animated brushwork, and lively, engaging subjects.
Through these means, the artist merges observation and imagination, effortlessly evoking the aura of faraway places and the people that inhabit them."--BOOK JACKET.
