Roman Klonek

A modern-day master of woodcut printing, Roman Klonek creates bold images, which take in the aesthetics of vintage comics, avant-garde propaganda posters and Eastern European folklore. His colourful narratives blend ancient craft with a pop culture vibe, and are populated by a cast of hybrid creatures, humans and animals. 

Roman was born in Kattowitz, Poland, and later moved to Germany. He has exhibited across Germany, and in Los Angeles, London, Paris and Sao Paulo, among others. He has hosted solo shows in Berlin and Hong Kong, and participated in a group presentation at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Yinchuan, China.
