Frank’s work is a mix of urban art, pop art and neo-expressionism. He aims to create his art as much as possible on used, discarded materials, but mostly wood. In a playful and humorous way he tries to portray themes such as sex, the current zeitgeist and current events. These can be serious topics, but also absurd improbabilities and topics about events in his own life. He explains:
“I am not the best speaker and in a discussion I often keep a low profile. But I observe everything and use this to create my art. I don’t push my opinion. I think it’s more important to make people think about it. Life, freedom and equality are central themes in my work.”
Frank’s artworks have been seen at various exhibitions in the Netherlands, Germany and USA. His work has been auctioned by Christie’s, you may have seen him at KunstRai Amsterdam and he had a residency in Sofitel Legend The Grand in Amsterdam. Collectors worldwide own his art.
