1943 Born in Solingen, Begisches Land (DE)
uwe laysiepen, known from the performance couple ulay & abramovic, always was and still is involved in photography. ulay in photography is the title of a film, showing stages of his later work in boston (1990), berlin (1994-1995) and australia (1997). his early work consits of small polaroids of private, often transvestite performances. then the period together with marina abramovic, performing in public the most existential conditions of human endurance (from 1975-1988) brings worldwide fame. after their separation, ulay returns to photography as his sole means of expression, chosing the human condition as mainstream of interest, be it the case of the homeless, the condemned, aboriginees, or the way people relate to nationalism and its tokens, e.g. flags. although he makes clear statements, he is always open to reactions by his audience, showing himself without disguise and vulnerable.
