Subject: [OM] IMG: (East) Berlin
The part of Berlin that used to be on the wrong side of the Iron Curtain until
1990 is today one of the most interesting and dynamic urban areas anywhere in
the world. While parts are getting expensive and gentrified, it is still far
cheaper to be a young artist here than in any other major city in Europe or
North America. I attended a conference there in late June, with ample time to
walk around and take in the city. As is often the case, looking at art was a
major part of the walk. The highlights were the magnificent Jewish Museum
designed by Libeskind, the Berlin Gallery of Modern Art, and the street art
near the Warschauer Strasse metro station. A gallery of 69 images is here:

I promise: there are no images of Checkpoint Charlie, or Kurf rstendamm, or the
Parliament or the other big, well-known attactions (with the exception of the
TV tower on Alexanderplatz).
In addition, for more information on some of the places depicted, have a look
at their respective web pages:
