Alex K. Krueger, a Chicago-based artist is known for works that acts as a diary of emotional responses to the highs and lows of daily stimulations and consumption. Although his main art medium is glass and painting on found objects, he continues to grow strong characteristics on canvas and paper. Alex K. Kruegerâs practice is characterised by buildup of layers, lines, color, form and abstractions. Through his unique methodology and abstract, deeply intuitive technique, Alex K.
