ROLL AND ROCK (2019) Painting by Frank Willems

Frank is a contemporary Dutch artist whose work blends urban art, pop art, and neo-expressionism. He focuses on creating art using used and discarded materials, primarily wood. With a playful and humorous approach, Frank explores themes such as sex, the current zeitgeist, and contemporary events. His subjects range from serious issues to absurd improbabilities, including personal experiences from his life.
