Wolf Kahlen began studying at the Braunschweig School of Art in 1960. From 1961 to 1964 he studied art education at the Hochschule der Künste (HDK) in Berlin, which he passed with the state examination as an art teacher in 1964, and American studies and Finnish at the Freie Universität Berlin.

From 1965 to 1966 he stayed in the United States on a scholarship from the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) and studied at Columbia University in New York and at the renowned Pratt Institute.
