  • The Lads by London Police


    The Lads by London Police

    The London Police have a very distinctive style ( http://bit.ly/R0fAeM ). “The Lads” appears on a wall which looks like it is the background to a kids playground at the corner of Cuvrystrasse and Wangelstrasse in Kreuzberg.

  • Austronaut / Cosmonaut by Victor Ash


    Astronaut / Cosmonaut by Victor Ash

    One of the murals I was determined to see while in Berlin was this of the astronaut painted by Portugese born, Danish based artist – Victor Ash ( www.victorash.net/ ). I took several shots of the work which is about four-five stories tall. This was my favourite however as it shows the size of the work in relation to the building it is on, and the park in front of it.

  • Art works

    Art works, Teufelsberg

    I left it for a couple of days to recover from the information overload which was my trip to Field Station, Berlin or Teufelsberg as it is more commonly known.

    Today however I went through the photos I had taken of the art works on the mountain

    Built on an artificial mountain created after WWII, the Cold War listening post ran from 1963 through to the early 1990s. Once the operators left however, the site was abandoned and fell into the sort of ruin you see today. Since about 2010, volunteers have gradually cleared out some of the rubble and attempted to preserve what is left.

    Since 2012 a community of groups including artists and historians have worked to bring life back to the Devil’s Mountain, including tours and art events.

  • Art at work

    While I was at Urban Spree in Friedrichshain, one young artist was working on a piece near the front door to the gallery space.

  • Yard 5, Friedrichshain

    Yard 5, Friedrichshain

    Street art, Yard 5, Friedrichshain. I caught this only briefly between the M13 and M10 trams and the rain about to set in and my camera battery dying. The project looks interesting enough for me to make a trip just to look through the yard, painted over the Easter long weekend.

  • Building art

    Walking down Prenzlauer Alle I happened to look over my shoulder and saw this amazing bit of art above a roofline on the side of a building.
