Jaime Sabines | I’m not dying of love: I’m dying of you..

I'm not dying of love: I'm dying of you

my love-dying of the love of you,

of my dire need for my skin of you,

of my soul and my mouth of you,

of the miserable wretch I am without you.

I’m dying of you and me, of both

of us, of this-

ripped to shreds, torn apart,

the two of us are dying, dying of it.

The precise convergence of three dynamic forces, culture, environment and talent, combined to produce one of the most collected figurative painters on the American art scene today.

Raised by an artistically gifted family near the Caspian Sea in southern Russia, Andre Kohn's childhood was marked by the natural splendor of mountains and sea, and by an unfettered access to all the creative arts.

His mother was a symphony violinist and his father a noted linguist, writer and sculptor.

Both were educators trained in psychology who gave their only child unrestricted opportunity to explore the depths of art and his own obvious talent.
