About The Artist

With the use of courageous and emotionally stressed colours, the pictures of the artist distinguish himself from other painters. The often-used mixing of techniques, such as the use of oil with fast-drying acrylic colors, as well as airbrush creates the spontaneous function that contrasts to the more mature techniques. The works of F. Kohaut are based on the strong conviction that tolerance, openness and cultural variety constitute ideals for a peaceful, free and creatively social existence. The ambition, which pulls itself like a red thread through the artist‘s life up til now, does not allow the artist to rest, perhaps in an effort to push the borders of the handicraft without drawing a line at the border of his creativity. The recognizable goal of the artist is to deepen his own handwriting and gain new impulses. Only living humans are the subjects of my paintings. The traces of human acting and striving, which my pictures point out, are often only fragments of dreams and illusions. Kohaut often uses remarkably clear smearing as well as precisely set lines, which allow the flow of trees into persons (their characters) and, at the same time, persons into trees (their values). The paradox wins in such works‘ comprehensibility.
