| Specially made for their 12 1/2 year
anniversary Mister B will exhibit 8 art prints by the American artist
Axel, made for a new Mister B advertising campaign.
THE ARTIST:
Born the
last son in a large family, Axel survived growing up as a wild,
untamed country brat in the sagebrush fields of Idaho. "Growning
up in southern Idaho, it was hard to believe that a vast world was
out there with a thousand different beliefs and ways of expressing
ones self".
Axel never finished his Bachelors in the Arts. Three classes away,
he jumped ship and began living in the real world. It was unfortunate
because he really enjoyed being a student. Wolrd history became
a fascination. Languages came later. Coming out at a age of sixteen
to friends and family, it took until the age of twentysix before
he let the entire world know. When asked about his life, he does
not hesitate to use words as boyfriend, significant other, etc.
These days Axel lives and works in Seattle "It’s a wondeful
city, if not a bit overcast. There are a lot of tolerant and accepting
people here, a place where you don’t have to worry about a
brick up side the head".
