Berlin Series: It's a wrap!

You really can't go to Berlin without seeing the wall and since the East Side Gallery,the world's largest open air mural collection, has been threatened with destruction by some money making, luxury apartment building suits, it was top of my must see list.

 

"Who wants the world to remain as it is,

doesn't want it too remain at all"

In 2009 the wall was restored. In more than 100 paintings, dozens of  international artists translated the era's global euphoria and optimism into a mix of political statements, drug induced musings and truely artistic visions.
