Streetart Frankey in the centre of Amsterdam
The Dutch lion is up to his mane in water
Reported gone
S.O.S. for a Living Planet shows the Dutch lion, symbol of the animal kingdom, up to his mane in water and calling for help. Frankey made it on the day WWF reported that wildlife populations worldwide had shrunk by an average of 73 percent since 1970. His message is that protecting and restoring nature, quickly, is the answer.
S.o.s. For A Living Planet is a Streetart Frankey artwork on Damrak, in the centre of Amsterdam.
It is one of 184 Streetart Frankey works on our map in Centrum. 17 other works are still in place within about ten minutes on foot, so this one is easy to combine with a short Frankey walk.
Visitors or our own team have reported that this work is no longer there. Street art is temporary by nature, and Frankey's small sculptures are sometimes removed or taken. We keep the spot on the map so you can see where it was, and the works listed below are still in place nearby.
Het Parool wrote about this work in its Streetart Frankey column: read the article (in Dutch).
Our guides know where Frankey's pieces hide. Ask us for a private street art walking tour and we will build the route around the art, Frankey's work very much included.
