b. 1972, Kazakhstan
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 the creation of an enigmatic atmosphere and situation. 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 Rudolf's work is light and its representation painting. Since ancient times, human long for the heat that creates a fire, this heat is also associated with light: a strong light source for us humans has a very attractive and magical effect. Human and animal are on their way to search for this light, this perpetual longing is the core subject in his paintings. In more recent works Rudolf Kosow plays with a sense of surrealism by setting 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.
