Adam Swanson - Local Artist

Photos and text by Nate Lindstrom

Painter Adam Swanson has an affinity for penguins, robots, old bicycles and wind turbines. With colors and a painting style as fantastic as the subjects themselves, his work is easily recognizable and becoming extremely popular.  Adam works out of his home studio, but his work can be seen in several galleries in Duluth, and currently as an exhibit showing at the Lake Avenue Cafe in Canal Park.

"In my work I deconstruct the ideas that are part of our childhood and adult culture. My work also addresses the future, fragility of the human presence, perseverance of nature and underlying threads of danger that underpin societies."
