Axel Krause, born 23 October 1958 in Halle (Saale), is a German painter and graphic artist. He is associated with the New Leipzig School and lives and works in Leipzig. He studied at the Hochschule für Grafik und Buchkunst Leipzig in 1981–1986.[1] He taught at the school in 1989–1999 and worked for the Leipzig Opera in 1990–1993.[2]
He paints with acrylic and oil. Typical for the New Leipzig School, Krause paints figurative subjects with mysterious and surreal elements and uses collage techniques. His interiors, landscapes and atmospheric scenes have been compared to American realists such as Edward Hopper.[3]
Krause is sympathetic to the far-right German political party AfD. In 2018 the Leipzig art dealership Galerie Kleindienst announced that it would no longer represent Krause due to his political views. In 2019, Krause was one of 37 artists selected to exhibit at the Leipzig Annual Exhibition, but shortly before the exhibition was due to open the organisers announced that he had been ejected from the show, following objections to his inclusion.[4]
