Paintings by Felix Jenewein

Felix Jenewein (1857-1905) was a Czech painter and illustrator. As a student in Prague at the Vienna Academy, he belonged to the generation of the National Theatre . After his studies, he worked most of his life in Prague as an illustrator and later taught at the Brno University of Technology.

Felix Jenewein created especially vivid historical works, in which he visualized  the Nazarene Catholic morality. His artwork was well known in his homeland for its dark realism, particularly in his homeland and was received with great enthusiasm in Vienna. In Kutna Hora, the Galerie Felix Janewein has a collection of his works.

Ferras, “Speak in Tongues”

Ferras, “Speak in Tongues”

Jordanian-American Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter, Ferras grew up in a small town in Illinois where he never felt like he really fit in. After his parents divorced, his father kidnapped him and brought him to Jordan, where he began playing a Casio keyboard and began writing his own songs.

Ferras’ first album, “Aliens and Rainbows”, featured the song “Hollywood’s Not America,” which was used as the exit song for season seven of “American Idol”. He has since co-written several songs for artists including Adam Lambert and The Veronicas.

With his smooth, sweet voice and his incredible songwriting ability, Ferras is a talent to watch. And what does openly gay Ferras look for in a mate? “A sense of humor. And a great ass”.
