Berlin being torn apart by communism. Taken during a visit to Berlin in 1983. Scanned from an old slide.
The Berlin Wall has had an interesting history since it was breached in 1989. People seem to want a piece of it and slowly Berliners realized not much was left. The six sections at Potsdamer Platz are covered in chewing gum, a show of disdain for a hated symbol of division perhaps. There are now attempts to get preservation orders in place on what remains. 1.3kms of sections of the Wall have been gathered here at the East Side Gallery and street artists from across the world have been invited to decorate it. This section stands next to the north bank of the river, looking across at where it once actually stood on the other side.
at the Berlin Wall and the Brandenburg gate . long ago i spent Christmas in Berlin , after a long drive in a cold VW van from London .
I did a sketch on 21 Jan 2011 on the same location. The difference is that the trees have grown taller and there is now a bistro on the left. I went there for a coffee only to find out that it open from 5pm to 11pm.
From my last post:
Bedok Reservoir near my work place is really quiet during lunch hours. There are four panels of Berlin Wall enclosed in a glass box in this circular pavilion. I thought something of this significant nature should be displayed in the busy city area for more people to see. On the panels, there are the pictures of two kings, one smiling, one sad, drawn by grafitti artist Dennis Kaun in the weeks following the fall of the Wall. This motif of the two kings has been repeatedly painted and repainted on the Berlin Wall long before it fell. They are called "Kings of Freedom".
The day the panels were unveiled, the authority said this would be an attractive spot in the park and a bistro will be built as an extension to the Berlin Wall installation. One year has passed and there is still no sign of the bistro.
