August Ohm was a German painter, draftsman and stage designer.

After studying under his father, the painter Wilhelm Ohm (1905-1965), he studied at the Werkkunstschule Hamburg (design and costume designer) and at the University of Hamburg, as well as at the Free University of Berlin (art history). The artist constantly refers to historical models of Western painting.

August Ohm is known for a series of antique faces entitled "Paintings of Antiquity", as well as portraits based on paintings by Lucas Cranach. He also created illustrations of the Apocalypse, desert paintings from Afghanistan, urban themes, "Novalis Paintings" and many others. Since the 1970s, August Ohm has also amassed a significant collection on the history of costume. Since 1982, the artist has lived and worked in Hamburg and has a second studio in Florence.
