Adam Axel

Adam Axel, born 1981, is a painter who lives and works in New York City. His figurative oil painting is characterized by its engagement with the female form. Axel, a native New Yorker, attended the Sorbonne, and later received his B.F.A. from Hunter College. Axel's recent works largely consist of photographic imagery. These images depict subject matter that he believes is best addressed through the innately direct lens of a camera.
