colourful prints, objects, artist&#8217;s books, writings and project documentation in the exhibition.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"--r container-target\">The idea to exhibit his work together with that of artists Achim Borsdorf, Udo W\u00fcrtenberger and Giuliana Del Zanna came from Michael Ley himself.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"--l --r container-target\">Michel Ley, born in West Berlin in 1953, was socialised in the turbulent and free Berlin. He first studied chemistry at the Technical University and felt increasingly drawn to the visual arts. He began to explore photography, started painting, learned etching techniques in 1983 and worked with woodcuts and linocuts.<\/span> <span class=\"--l --r container-target\"><span class=\"--l --r bg-blue-50 dark:bg-blue-500 text-unit-target\">Since the 1990s, the artist has also worked with digital techniques and combined different printing techniques. He has been involved in mail art and has exhibited many portfolios and artist&#8217;s books. He has participated in the Free Berlin Art Exhibition since 1984 and has been represented at numerous festivals and exhibition projects.
