Berlin Street Art

(Karl-Liebknecht-Strasse, Berlin)

I took this shot on my European jaunt in August. Berlin is a spacious, patient city and this surprised me.

To see this enormous love heart at the centre of the city, where its political heartbeat lies, was unexpected.

To me, it was an affirmation of life. I don't know if this artwork is a permanent fixture, but it should be.

All you need is liebe.

Roa mural in Berlin

The good folks at Patricia Never Leaves the House sent over this photo of a recently painted ROA mural in Berlin.

Skalitzers hosted ROA for his first solo show in the city.

I was in Berlin a few weeks ago and wonder how I missed this very conspicuous mural.

Anthony Lister in Berlin

Anthony Lister in Berlin from rodgezooi on Vimeo.

In this video Anthony Lister runs around Berlin and tags sh-t and sounds lethargic and does a bad impression of Bob Dylan.

But there's something about him that's so likeable. So what if he can't speak with a convincing American accent even though he's lived in New York for years?

Acid Midget: Hey Tony, I'm feeling a little bromance over you in this video.
Lister: Dude my name isn't Tony.
AM: OK. I like your art works. The ones with all the deformed eyes and noses and Michael Jackson werewolves.
L: Dude how did you get into my house?
AM: Tony, I feel like we understand each other.
L: I don't think so. You really need to leave now.
AM: What's your favourite part of Berlin?
L: The East Berlin Police Department.
AM: Why is that Tony? I thought you liked decrepit houses and skate parks?
L: You'll find out in about 20 mins. Don't go anywhere.
AM: Awww Tony!

BERLIN: 1UP subway graffiti bomb

Berlin's 1UP graffiti crew hit a subway train brandishing balaclavas and cans in this clip.

They cover an entire carriage in silver, black, red and white in only two minutes as passengers choke with fear.

This is what graf is all about. Art fags don't get it; if you're not terrorising the city, destroying shit and scaring the neighbours then GTFO.

This clip forms part of the documentary Unlike U: Trainwriting in Berlin.
