Hans Fohan his paintings distance themself from the excess with which our society today saturates itself. His primordial dots of paint stain the vacuum on his canvas and are essential in his autonomous world where silence transforms reality. Impregnating noble simplicity, the artist creates a means of communication on an empty surface, symbolic of space, space for others and for himself. Biomorphic signs there cry out for dialogue, contemplation and redemption.

Hans Fohan’s artistic social interpretation, a message within the art history of his time, lives as a visual autonomous force! Amor Vacui, the stain, the persistent capital letter, intrigues but is not given a conventional right to direct affection. Preferably, the stain is removed as quickly as possible. The stain a subdued explosion that avoids no dialogue, symbolises the 21st century. It is the silent call, the minimal movement, the necessary space for new cultures to unite with us. Only our hearing of their existence builds the Amor Vacui in the new world in which we all find ourselves together.
