An artist portrait. Aleksej is impatience, rebellion, assertiveness, total identification and a willingness to experiment. A storyteller, multimedia architect and impresario.

Aleksej, born in Moscow, grew up in East Berlin, studied photography, film, graphics and multimedia. In the early 1990s he was discovered by Rampazzo, co-founder of the legendary Tacheles club. Aleksej became one of the first light DJs in the Berlin club scene. He is now known far beyond the borders of Berlin. His most spectacular works include his stage designs for the Berlin Friedrichstadtpalast and Multimedia Productions.
