Description

This exclusive tour is the most comprehensive tour of it's kind in the city. You will visit locations outside and inside the city centre and is the accumulation of over 17 years guiding experience and involvement in the urban art scene in Berlin. On this fun and informative tour we will criss cross the city and take you from the the west of Berlin to the east from public spaces to quiet courtyards and backstreets, as your guide (an active member of the scene) dazzles you with insider knowledge and tales from streets. From “tags” that are made while you´re asleep, to tiny street installations and stencils to giant murals that take up an entire building and dominate the city skyline, you will see a huge volume of beautiful, inspiring and edgy art from the past up to this present day. We go deep on this tour and we will discuss on the origins of the Graffiti scene in the 1980's in Schöneberg and Kreuzberg. The crews, styles, techniques, the influence of the hip hop scene and street gangs on graffiti street culture and how it has helped shape Berlin's massive creative reputation throughout the world. We talk about the motivations of writers and artists, what their backgrounds are and how and why they paint everything from rooftops, walls, trains and commissioned pieces both illegal and legal. Your group will learn about the 2000's street art explosion and the key artists that have not only come from Berlin but around the world to leave their mark and whose art as become part of the city's stunning urban art scene and part of Berlin´s modern folklore. You will see over 35 murals, graffiti walls, street installations and stencil art that often portrays the political, humorous side of Berlin life or the world at large. So have you cameras and notepads ready as this tour covers a huge volume of material for you to enjoy and take in. Come and explore Berlin's incredible street art / graffiti scene and let me show you that urban art is more than just the writings 'on the subway walls' but a way of life in this city.
