his monotypes and drawings were exhibited in 1947 at the Art Institute of Chicago and, in 1948, at the Philadelphia Art Alliance. Taking up a teaching post at the Royal Naval College, Devon in 1946, he then moved to Guildford School of Art in 1951 withdrawing from public exhibitions for 38 years (except a poster design for London Transport and a small group exhibition at Surrey University in 1971). After the Guildford sit-in, Kashdan and 40 other staff were sacked. Magnus Magnusson examined the events in a BBC radio programme Cause for Concern. Kashdan was moved to Epsom College of Art as tutor librarian where he retired in 1982. After his retirement, Kashdan's paintings and monotypes were once more publicly displayed in a retrospective of his work from 1940–55 at England & co gallery, London. Following the exhibition, the British Museum's department of prints and drawings acquired a selection of Kashdan's work. The Museum then displayed parts of this collection in their Avant-Garde British Printmaking 1914–60 exhibition in 1990. The last exhibition of his work in Kashdan's lifetime was in 1991, displaying a collection of his monotypes from 1941–91.
