Abstract

Among the most innovative work of the second half of the 20th century, Evelyne Axell's oeuvre is firmly rooted in the 1960's. This shining star of Pop Art used the violent imagery and colors of advertising to shape a style and a technique that were unmistakably her own, finding her full impact in a thrusting eroticism that spoke unambiguously of the right to pleasure and choice and abolished the woman-as-object forever. "Life incarnate", as critic Pierre Restany put it, shed died tragically in a car accident in 1972, aged thirty-seven.
