Frank Eydner

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Frank Eydner (* 1968 in Munich ), known as "Franky" is a German-born photographer , philosopher and street sweeper .

plant

His vocation to photography, to art, is on par with his job as a street sweeper. The polarization that Frank Eydner experiences through his art and his job is repeated in the subjects of his photographs, in which different worlds collide. His pictures of cemeteries and tombs, which are reminiscent of transience, contrast with the recordings of the club scene.
