24th day: WE ARE GETTING CLOSER…

24th day: WE ARE GETTING CLOSER…
to Berlin’s most famous club, at least the one with the biggest mystery: the ” Berghain”. The most relevant question is: How should I dress myself to come in? According to the legend, even Tom Cruise was refused entry. I was told by a connoisseur that I had a 50 % change to get in, but I never had the patience to put myself in the queue until now.
These dancing girls adorn the path to the Berghain and prepare the (potential) host mentally for a long dancing night.

23rd day: Grimly looking men…

23rd day: GRIMLY LOOKING MEN…
…these faces remind me of the so-called Wutbürger, people who apparently are looking for a valve and especially scapegoats to let out their frustrations on anyone. Have we really learned so little from our painful history? No, I firmly believe that the majority of the german population still supports the welcoming culture, only that these voices seem to be very quiet compared to the loud sounds of the others.

18th day: Queen Elisabeth in Cherry and Pink!

18th day: QUEEN ELISABETH IN CHERRY AND PINK!
To my delight I found a new variant of the Queen. This time duplicated and in other colors! She reminds me of the Variete Girls of the twentys, who enchanted a crowd with her long legs.
She seems to be disconnected from her duties and simply free.
I think that cherry fits her best!

17th day: Totally into it!

17th day: TOTALLY INTO IT!
Today’s street art painting shows a young man listening to music. But it’s more than that: He is not just listening, he and the music have become one. They are completely fused together. It does not happen so often to me anymore, but when it happens it is a beautiful and special moment.
When was the last time you and your music became one?

15th day: WEEPING COLOURS!
Today’s street art painting is very special, because the viewer is touched while looking at and it and it is impossible to pass by without stopping. It has a unique and distinctive style. Back at home I researched the internet and found out that the author of this art work is the London based street artist Jimmy C. who was born in Adelaide. This painting is very special for Jimmy: it is a self portrait, called the PAINTERS TEARS, which was originally painted on Canvas. Hopefully Jimmy C. will surprise us with many other wonderful art works.
