Axel Crieger Prints and Multiples
German, b. 1955
From images of the late Greek tycoon Aristotle Onassis shrugging in front of a sunken superyacht to a portrait of Audrey Hepburn having breakfast — not at Tiffany’s but at Katz’s delicatessen — Axel Crieger’s Pop art-style digital paintings are at once realist and impossibly dreamlike.
Born in 1955 in Munich, Crieger studied visual communication before working as a photographer, art director and designer for global brands such as BMW, Time Warner, Levi’s, Daimler AG and Heineken, to name a few.
Crieger works in a range of media and utilizes varied digital effects to create unique contemporary photographic art that is imaginative and visually rich. His collagist works feature an integration of existing images of renowned figures such as Karl Lagerfeld and luxury products such as Chanel No. 5 perfume bottles. Beloved big-screen legends such as Marilyn Monroe also pop up in Crieger’s figurative photography, which ranges from classic black and white images to vibrant color photos.
Crieger’s work has been exhibited extensively in Amsterdam, London, San Francisco, Miami, New York and elsewhere. His images are held in numerous public and private art collections all over the world. While living in Dusseldorf, he met Andy Warhol, and Crieger’s work was later featured in the Pop art icon’s Interview magazine. Elsewhere, his photography has been highlighted in the likes of Vogue, Elle and Entertainment Weekly.

Alex Crieger is a world-reknown artist, designer and photographer. He lives and works in Los Angeles. His digital paintings have a rich and profound pictorial space that invites the viewer into it and makes him/her a silent participant of the story.
His digital collaged images depict celebrities in dreamlike settings as advertisement of luxury products giving the images an original new look. Alex’s digital paintings are composed of a variety of photographic quotes, designs, drawings and special effects to create photographic images he has not always taken but collaged into new uniquely composed settings.
Crieger is a photographer who makes art photographs we wish to be real. He’s created compositions of Steve McQueen or Brigitte Bardot that are more beautiful than the truth. A combination of sketches, digital effects and a spectacular design yield classic photographs that have never been photographed. For example, Brigitte still exudes in Paris and an eternally young James Dean poses for a propeller plane. Crieger has already produced several exhibitions at international art shows and galleries. Many museums of contemporary art also exhibit his work.
