The artwork "Can’t buy me Love!" is an impressive fusion of materials and techniques that convey a powerful message. Krüger presents an innovative and visually appealing creation on a polished aluminum plate coated with a special red crystal lacquer. The red lacquer emphasises the finely crafted surface of the aluminium and gives the sanding work a fascinating shine without covering it up.

The central element of the artwork is formed by the letters L-O-V-E, which are placed at a distance on the aluminum plate, creating an impressive 3D effect. These letters, skilfully designed and perfectly positioned, immediately attract attention. They are remarkable not only by virtue of their three-dimensional arrangement, but also because of their surface, which is covered with real dollar notes.

The dollar notes covering the letters are additionally refined with synthetic resin and 23-carat gold. This luxurious finish gives the letters a glossy, almost magical shimmer and reinforces the symbolic message of the work: The idea that love cannot be bought with money. By using dollar notes and gold, Krüger underlines the discrepancy between material wealth and emotional fulfilment.

"Can’t buy me Love!" is more than just a work of art; it is a profound reflection on the values of our society. Frank Krüger manages to achieve a strong visual and emotional impact through his masterful technique and the skillful combination of materials. The artwork invites the viewer to reflect on the true meaning of love and wealth and to be inspired by its brilliant aesthetics and profound message.
