Autodidact and key figure of the Knokke art scene, Roger Nellens began in the late 1960s to develop his poetic-surrealist ‘Imaginary Machines,’ in which technique and imagination merge. His work aligns with the Belgian surrealist tradition and shows affinities with pop surrealism. As an organizer and patron, he brought international artists to Knokke, including Keith Haring, who stayed with the Nellens family for several summers. Nellens’s works can be found, among others, in Mu.ZEE, Ostend, and in the Brussels Metro.
