Melon Eater with Monkey, 1996 Oil on Canvas VIEW DETAILS OF THIS IMAGE |
The whole spectrum of Frenkiel's work, ranging from the mundane to the fantastic, the comic to the tragic, is characterised by his capacity for transformation. His labyrithine imagination, in league with relentless powers of observation and acute psychological insight, can imbue the mundane with majesty or mystery, the fantastic with layers of meaning far beyond the superficial impression of revelry or ritual, and can spice the comic with strange bitterness..... Anthony Dyson, Passion and Paradox 2001 For convenience the works are categorised into periods
