Flashback
New artworks by Kim Cogan
Hashimoto Contemporary, San Francisco
October 2017

Artist Kim Cogan explores the iconography of our memories in his first solo exhibition in
San Francisco in over 5 years.

Flashback is both a consequence of Cogan’s earlier works dealing with time, memory
and place as a source of meaning—and it is also the inception of a new inquiry on
imagery over form. What icons trigger nostalgia in us? Is it merely the representations of
familiar places and objects, or is it the expression of color and light that evoke our
memories?

Steeped in the city’s obscure enclaves and outer landscapes, Cogan is immersed in a
San Francisco seemingly bygone. Artifacts of the present transport us back to a time
and place at once familiar and incomplete. Witnessing the vanishing architecture of our
streets can activate recollections of the past akin to discovering a long-lost photograph
of a childhood memory.

Just as deliberate as Cogan’s selection of icons is his attention to composition and
technique. As an artist, Cogan has always exploited paint’s tactile form to exaggerate a
mood or overstate emotional content. “The painting is built up in several layers—some
translucent, some opaque—in order to create depth,” says Cogan. “I often add or
subtract details to focus the viewer on a specific area of the composition.” His aim is not
merely to reproduce a literal translation of a scene, rather it is to elicit a response
through a complete visual experience.

Cogan’s work reminds us that, in this inescapable race forward, our experience of
contemporary life and art draws much more from our understanding of the past than our
untethered ideas of the future.

Shadows of an Alley /  by Kim Cogan

Do I ever tire of painting the city? Never.

I am fortunate to live in a city which offers endless inspiration. Even some locations I have painted several times because I see it differently than before.

 

This new painting has been added to the store.

Store // Print and Small Works /  by Kim Cogan

Online store has been added to kimcogan.com.

In the store you will find featured printed matter; brochures from past exhibitions and past limited edition artist runs. There is a limited amount and will only be on sale while they last.

Also find a section designated for small works. Each month I work on a handful of small sketches/preliminary paintings which someday might become larger paintings, but for the time being they have slowly been accumulating in the studio. To keep the store interesting, I will be adding some of these new small works each month. I figured this would be a great way to offer some exclusive small artworks for an affordable price, a great way to start an art collection or compliment your collection with a small gem. So please check back and I hope you will enjoy.

If you are looking for anything specific, have a question or feedback please contact directly.

Thank you.
