He was first a self-taught artist and then took classes in the Hungarian artist colony Nagybánya with Simon Hollósy. Starting from 1903, he lived in Munich and was a pupil at the Lehr- und Versuchsanstalt für Angewandte und Freie Kunst. He also took classes with Wilhelm von Rümann at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich. From 1908, he exhibited at the Paris Salon d'Automne. In 1909, he joined the Neue Künstlervereinigung Munich. He taught temporarily at the Folkwang Museum in Hagen, and at the Kunstgewerbeschule Weimar. In the 1920s, he exhibited along with the artist group of the Berlin Secession. At the time of World War II, his art was considered degenerate. Kogan was a member of the Deutsche Künstlerbund, the Deutsche Werkbund, and the Sonderbund Düsseldorf. His works are in the collections of many major museums, including the Folkwang Museum in Essen, the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, the Museum Ludwig in Cologne, and the Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus in Munich Condition No apparent retouches under UV light.
