Manneken by Roman Klonek

Woodcut, 34 x 49 cm, Number 7 from Edition of 12

Original unframed print.

Roman Klonek, born in Kattowitz/Poland, has a spot for old fashioned cartoons and modern block printing styles.
In the 90s he studied Graphic Arts in Duesseldorf and discovered a passion for woodcut.
For the past 20 years he has created illustrations and prints with a wide range of whimsical creatures, mostly half animal/half human and preferably in awkward situations. His work can be described as a bizarre balancing act between propaganda, folklore and pop.
He works together with friends in a studio in Düsseldorf, Germany.
