Biography
During Paul Beel's 25 year career as a practicing artist he has gained a reputation as one of the most interesting contemporary figurative artist in Italy and abroad. Beel's work, which can generally be described as a meditation on the importance of beauty despite the often bleak world in which we may encounter it, has been widely published, exhibited and aquired. The artist has won the Premio Celeste Prize, the Travel Award at the National Portrait Gallery in London and the Premio Bozzolo amongst other prizes. The Museum of Modern European Art in Barcelona has acquired several of his paintings for their permanent collection, and his work is included in important private collections including the Bennetton collection and the Tullman collection. His work has been reviewed in "Arte" magazine, "Poets and Artists", and published in numerous catalogs.
He now lives and works in Germany.
