Als een meisje een bikini droeg op de duikplank in de jaren 60, werd dit beschouwd als sexy. In feite werd surfen beschouwd als zo'n wilde en sensuele sport dat het "surfen op de golven" werd genoemd.

Als een meisje een bikini droeg op de duikplank in de jaren 60, werd dit beschouwd als sexy. In feite werd surfen beschouwd als zo'n wilde en sensuele sport dat het "surfen op de golven" werd genoemd. De gedurfde en avontuurlijke houding van de surfers werd vaak belichaamd door een meisje in bikini op de duikplank. Het meisje in fifties-stijl droeg kleding die haar persoonlijkheid en gevoel voor sexappeal liet zien. Ze was moedig genoeg om een rok in jaren vijftig stijl te dragen met een zeer onthullend topje.

From his interests in both classical art and modern / contemporary art, Belgian artist Jan Keteleer (JanKé) works with different styles. Ancient art is one of his interests, but you can also find examples of his work in pop art and impressionism. If you browse through Jan Keteleer's portfolio, you will find beautiful nature scenes, painterly images of animals or pop art-based nudes.

After years of working in commercial photography, he turned his interest to artistic black and white photography. Projects such as Speechless, Silent Dialogues and Roots with Taboo brought him fame. He was inspired by the problems of the multicultural society in Belgium, the coexistence of different national and ethnic groups, the issue of the language barrier and the lack of dialogue between the "old" (the native population) and the "new" Belgians (the immigrants).

Today he has devoted himself entirely to digital painting. Using classical techniques such as acrylic and pastel, he creates individual elements that are then digitally brought together and finished.

JanKé attaches great importance to the social significance of his works and integrates them into the context of public space (stations, airports and public transport), prompting the viewer to react and reflect. His projects have received the support of the organization Sprakeloos, which aims to use art to provoke discussion on social issues.

He has had numerous exhibitions in Belgium (in Antwerp, Bruges, Lier, Leuven and Ghent), in the U.S. (in Dallas and San Francisco) and in Poland (in Krakow).
