The high-profile marriage between Claudio Paul Caniggia and Mariana Nannis, full of eccentricities, also bore fruit in the world of showbiz: the twins Charlotte and Alexander, who are usually involved in various scandals and participate in the most watched programs on Argentine television. However, Kevin Axel’s first-born son decided to live away from the flashes and decided to take a different path than the rest of his family.
The young man was born in 1991 in Buenos Aires, but the career of the world runner-up striker with the Argentine National Team in Italy forced him to stopover in different parts of the planet. Along with the success of Son of the Wind, the boy passed through Spain, Scotland and Portugal until settling in his native country. In any case, football was far from being his vocation and art became his hobby.

“I have been drawing since I was four years old. When I was six, I remember that my mother gave me a box of paints with which I made my first painting: it was an oil landscape. I can’t imagine doing anything else,” said the eldest Caniggia, who does not usually have regular communication with his media brothers. Even so, his parents gave him the go-ahead to drop out of school when he was a teenager to give free rein to his passion.

At the age of 14, he decided to become a hyperrealist painter, a style that precisely imitates photography. Kevin Axel’s mentor was Pablo Gracia López, also known as Alexis, a Spanish artist who enjoys great prestige in the field. His imprint was perfected over time and, in 2009, he had the opportunity to carry out his first exhibition in the city of Marbella.

The older Caniggia’s Instagram account allows you to see some postcards of his day-to-day life, with a much lower profile but in constant contact with Hollywood figures. In the images, he can be seen giving his portraits to celebrities such as Robert de Niro and Jack Nicholson.
He also did it with the singer Jason DeRulo or soccer players like Diego Maradona and Lionel Messi. For some time now, his social networks became private and less and less is known about his activity.

The painter finally ended up in the Costa del Sol resort with his partner Nieves, with whom he has a 9-year-old daughter. In principle, he only chats with his father and Nannis would have refused to see his granddaughter: as it turned out, the star’s ex-wife would not agree with the bond that Kevin Axel has with his girlfriend and even refused to publicly assure that it was grandmother.

Last year, during Alex’s participation in the reality show The Hotel of the Famous, the influencer dared to provide some details regarding his brother’s present. “He is a cheto bohemian. He sucks everything, he doesn’t even have a phone. He is two years older than me. He is now in Germany and does not want to move,” stated the driver in a chat with Chanchi Estévez.

“You tell him about going to a place to eat and he tells you that it’s terrible, he’s tall, you don’t know how he dresses. He orders the costumes to be made with flowers, maybe red with dragons and white. He doesn’t want to come for Christmas and who’s going to Frankfurt? ‘Then I’m not going,’ he tells you. I did not inherit any of his talent, I am a disaster,” the Emperor explained about his relationship with the artist, who wants to go unnoticed.
