Leny Franken

Leny Franken, visual artist…
From a concept that evokes vague memories of the most remarkable contemporary Belgian artist Achilles Cools. Even in a number of paintings one finds a bond of spirit that is extraordinary. All the more special because both artists do not know each other.
Leny Franken’s bronze birds are sober, radiate simplicity, the art of omission, so that every surface, every line serves the essence. Even the title ‘MUSLUKT’ functions as a pars pro toto. Leny Franken manages time and again to balance the formal composition of a bird species, which is most likely extinct, as well as the fantasy theme of the subject ‘Birds’, so that the birds resign themselves to the fact that they act in their solidified bronze world. are limited and therefore give the viewer an optimal opportunity to enjoy their characteristic essence.
