About the Item

In "Case", banal, everyday things meet in this painting to create an unusual, strange, absurd and ironical situation derived by the disproportional scale size of things. keywords; surrealism, banana, food, oil painting, earth tones, figurative painting, strangeness, contemporary surrealistic, unsettling, contemporary figurative painting, dreams, symbolic composition, couple, nostalgia, yellow, purple Rudolf Kosow uses three essential elements in his work: human, animal and nature. He is particularly interested in the composition of these components within a painting to achieve a creation of a special atmosphere and situation. Rudolf Kosow tries to transcend the border of pure realism and is constantly on the lookout for new image content and motifs. This creates surrealistic relationships between humans, animals and nature, which are unlikely in real life or completely impossible. Another important element in many works of Rudolf Kosow is the light and its representation in the painting. Since ancient times, human longs for the heat that creates a fire, of course, this heat is also associated with light: thus, a strong light source for us humans has a very attractive and magical effect. Human and animal searching for this light is a longing that should never end. In more recent works Rudolf Kosow plays again in the sense of surrealism with completely absurd and unrealistic proportions between human and animal. Rudolf studied art and painting at the Art Academy in Stuttgart, Germany. His painting studio is located in Laichingen, Germany.

  • Large Surrealist Oil on Canvas. 'She brought Colour into his Life'.
    By Frank Docherty
    Located in Cotignac, FR
    Large surrealist contemporary oil on canvas by Scottish artist Frank McLean Docherty R.S.W, signed and dated bottom left and signed and titled 'She brought Colour into his Life' to the reverse. This piece whilst wonderfully colourful, playful and erotic is typical of the witty sense of humour this artist displays in all his work. Docherty likes to tease us visually and asks questions and presents conundrums to the viewer. Frank McLean Docherty was born in Glasgow , Scotland in 1942. He became a student at Glasgow School of Art in 1960 and graduated from the Department of Printed Textiles in 1964. He taught in a secondary school in the East End of Glasgow for two years, thereafter departing to work in Dublin in the Republic of Ireland as a textile designer (Marks & Spencer, Heals and Liberty of London). He was also an illustrator for a range of newspapers and an Art Director of magazines. In 1973, he was appointed Principal Teacher of Art in a Scottish High School and in 1978 was honoured by the Queen when he was appointed Member of the Royal Society of Painters in Watercolours (R.S.W.) He left education in 1994. Since that time he has developed a vision which is quite unique in Scottish Art. Bank Managers, toucans, lighthouses, penguins, bowler hats, Frank Docherty...
