      Berlin street art

      August 25, 2021 in Germany ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C

      Berlin has lots of street art, especially in the former East Berlin. Some is quite interesting, but there is way too much tagging for my taste. That stuff looks more defacing than the street art which does enhance the community.
      The 1st picture is of paste up art. I'm told that some of these artists attend raves and other parties to take pictures anonymously. They select the ones they like to blow up and use for their art. Who knows? You might be famous on some wall in Berlin!
      The 2nd is an example of a sculpture on the street with some tagging. The third is an example of the use of stencils and shows the temporary nature of much street art. Unless it is a recognized piece, it can be painted over.
      The 4th picture is a recent work while the 5th is a work in progress.
      The last picture, the astronaut, I'm told was done for a festival using a stenciling process. You can probably tell by the angle of the picture that it is high on the wall.

      Spreefahrt mit Regentropfen

      August 25, 2023 in Germany ⋅ ☁️ 28 °C

      Wir genießen Berlin mit einem Frühstück in einem der coolen Strassencafes in Oli 's altem Kiez.
      Das Wetter spielt mit (dachten wir morgens) also entscheiden wir uns für eine 3 stündige Spreefahrt in der wir 36 Brücken unterfahren, eine Menge von Berlins Sehenswürdigkeiten von der Wasserseite sehen und insgesamt 3 Schleusen passieren. Zwischendurch wurden wir etwas von Regen überrascht, war aber nicht so schlimm da wir uns ja Kappen wegen der Sonne besorgt hatten 😅😜😅...
      Ein toller Tag mit vielen Eindrücken über eine faszinierende Stadt mit einem guten indischen Essen am Abend weiter. Später ging es dann noch ins Berliner Nachtleben um uns mit Oliver's Freund Andre und Susi zu treffen.... Sehr Hip und sehr stylisch im angesagten.... Viertel in einem "Biergarten". Die Berliner feiern recht ordentlich muss man sagen 😂😂

      Der Zufall wollte das die Hotelbar auf der selben Etage wohnt wie wir. Wir fanden das musste ein Zeichen sein 😇😂🍸🍸und dann nüscht wie ab in die Kiste 🥴
