2018

About the Item

In this painting, the painter tries to portray the young sleeping, lying and oversized figure of a woman as part of the landscape. Who likes to be this person and what is she doing in the middle of an abandoned landscape? keywords; surrealism, oil painting, earth tones, figurative painting, strangeness, contemporary surrealistic, unsettling, contemporary figurative painting, dreams, symbolic composition, woman portrait, red hair, suitcase, romantic, man and woman, couple 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.
