I’ve just got around to editing my Street Art photos from February and created a gallery for the pick of them here. All the photos from my ‘A Berlin Hof Spot’ post are included and some extras from that Hof near Café Cinema. Is it me or does this C215 piece bear a resemblance to the clown I […]
Street Art Courtyard – A Berlin Hof Spot For Street Art
Berlin is blessed (in my opinion) with a proliferation of high quality street art and one street art courtyard in Mitte is particularly well decorated. And one place to see plenty of it in a concentrated area is the Hof (courtyard) next to Café Cinema at Rosenthaler Straße 39, a short stroll from Hackescher Markt […]
Street Art – January 2012
I’ve created a new page in the Photos drop down for my favourite photos of the street art that I saw in January, some of which have appeared in my posts during the month. Here’s a little taster of what you’ll find there.
Love Thy Neighbour
Spotted in the snow on a car on Oderberger Strasse on the walk back from the Mauerpark.
Gestalten: Mark Jenkins – Glazed Paradise
As I left Barcomi’s Deli, my lunch spot for the day I noticed what I thought was a bookshop across the courtyard and wandered in to have a look around. Gestalten is a bookshop but it’s so much more too. The building I had entered is also a gallery and there was a Mark Jenkins […]
A sunny stroll around the Kollwitzkiez
It was a bright sunny day when I woke up this morning so I decided to make the most of it and instead of studying German got outside earlier in the morning. First, I walked the streets between Torststrasse, Danziger Strasse, Schönhauser Allee / Kollwitzstrasse and Prenzlauer Allee. And after a trip to Curry 36 […]
These boots were made for walking
As there was a fair chance of rain this afternoon I took my walk closer to home. I walked the streets from Danziger Strasse in the South to Stargarder Strasse in the North and Schonhauser Allee in the West to Prenzlauer Allee in the East. I was quite taken by the Helmholtzkiez (the area around […]
Back to Kreuzberg
I was back wandering around the streets of Kreuzberg today and spotted another great C215 piece in a doorway near Görlitzer Bahnhof. When I got back home and was sorting through my photos I realised that I need to find a way to track where I have been in Berlin and what is left to […]
Vhils by the Spree
Vhils is one of my favourite street artists so when I first saw this piece from a boat chugging along the Spree in the summer I was gutted that I couldn’t get a clean photo. Fortunately, the gates to the yard that the wall faces were open when I walked passed the other day and […]
A wander around Kreuzberg in the sun
Before Christmas I went to Kreuzberg with my camera to get a picture of this Street Art piece by Victor Ash of an Astronaut (Cosmonaut, Spaceman, take your pick depending on where you come from) and spent some time walking around but it was raining so my photos weren’t great. As it was sunny this morning when […]
