Johannes Hohlenberg (May 21, 1881 - 1960) was a Danish painter, writer, anthroposophist and philosopher. He had studied with Zahrtmann and then ran his own academy in Paris from 1906 - 1911. After that he got more and more into esotericism, met Rudolf Steiner, traveled to Egypt and India - and wrote about all these things: Yoga, the secrets of the Cheops Pyramid, Nostradamus, etc.
In the 30s he went into political philosophy and proposed a minimal state with shared economy among people but total artistic and philosophical freedom. In the 40s he wrote two books about Søren Kierkegaard.
