Teaching: 1966-84 Was head of Avni Institute, Tel Aviv. 1953 Participated in Biennale, San Paulo and 1960 Graphics Biennale, Tokyo. The New Horizons Movement was founded in 1948 as a first attempt to reach the abstract. Wexler was one of the founding members, who rejected the conservative demand for content, structure and form. Wexler's style is known for his linear and texture rich design. In his first years Wexler was influenced by the German Expressionism but already in 1959 he adopted a pictorial quality that was almost abstract. Died in 1995.
