Description: Hans Fohan's paintings distance themselves with great silence from the excess with which society today is saturated. His instinct for purity leads the viewer into the aesthetic experience of the unspeakable, like poetry that avoids all superfluous words. Fohan paints what het feels. He embraces the emptiness and chooses the Amor Vacui. In his existentialist philosophy he opens up an energetic infinity with his biomorphic abstraction.
