Street Art in Friedrichshain

El Bocho

I have been living in Friedrichshain for more than 5 years now, but I never really looked at the street art that you find here. Since I bought my first DSLR, everything changed. I suddenly started to notice my neighbourhood. Thank you, Pentax! So I found out: Friedrichshain is not just the district where you can buy Sternburger Pilsener (the cheapest beer that you can get) at every bakery, it is also a district with amazing street art. More of that after the jump.

    oh, sadly you missed the Linda project. It all began with Linda around 8 years ago, but disappeared now. Heres a little article about it http://www.spreeblick.com/2007/11/05/linda/ enjoy!

    howcome you “suddenly” started to notice friedrichshein’s street art? (having LIVED there for 5 years on top of it???) the whole district is about street art (and thats not news i guess, and hope) rather than some beer (plus cheap)…

    @ Peter ist neu in Berlin:
    das war natürlich nicht so ganz ernst gemeint…

    @ m.:
    Of course I noticed the street art before, but just superficially. I just passed by and never took the time to look at it carefully, taking time.

    @Peter ist neu in Berlin: At no point did Jens claim that he was an “insider”, so your criticism is out of place.
