Kagansky rooted himself in the city’s visual culture, from

Edward Hopper and the New York School painters

to commercial artists like J.C.Leyendecker. He began working as

an illustrator for major publishing houses, ad agencies, and

Magazines like the New York, before discovering a passion for

scenic art. His films and TV work includes The Sopranos,

Burn After Reading, Sesame Street, The Ice Storm, and

The Bourne Ultimatum, as well as Broadway productions and

campaigns for Givenchy, Hugo Boss, Shiseido. His paintings were

showcased on The Succession and The Sinner.

After decades of helping to build these fictional landscapes,

with an ever-evolving city and the world.
