In his oil paintings, Berlin-based Axel Geis focuses on human figures--be they solitary, paired or arranged in elaborate groups. He draws his motifs primarily from film, removing his models from their narrative context and liberating them from the roles originally assigned to them. Concentrating on recent works, this volume provides a first comprehensive survey.
