Biography

Markus Gley, born in 1980, graduate of the "Hero at the UDK Berlin" class, is a very extroverted painter who quickly found his own memorable style. His works are self-portraits / states of man and nature itself.
He implements the maxim of Joseph Beuys, "Art is life - life is art" risking everything - only committed to the truth.
In his new works, Markus Gley goes from eccentric to ordered rasta painting, which is shown in galaxies and other states of the universe.
Markus Gley lives and works in Germany in Greifswald and Berlin.
