Collection: Berlin Wall Graffiti Art
Description: This is the weekly electronic publication of the Los Angeles Review of Books. Yi discusses the difficulties of the East Side Gallery to preserve the existing graffiti art on the Berlin Wall. Some artists are painting over other artists’ works to create new works on the wall without permission. The article is a good history of the East Side Gallery, which began in January 1990 following the fall of the Wall in November 1989. It also discusses the gentrification pressures on the outdoor gallery’s riverfront property, which is becoming increasing desirable real estate.

Collection: Berlin Wall Graffiti Art
Description: This first part of a three-part series discusses the political significance of graffiti on the Berlin Wall from 1961-1989. The author says: “Graffiti artists consider that public spaces belong to the community and as such community members should decide what is displayed in them. They consider that a bare wall is “a symbol of a sterilized, tightly regulated environment” and that they are much more disconcerting to look at, than one covered in graffiti. With this in mind, it can be argued that West Berliners had the right to graffiti the Wall as they were obliged to co-exist with it. In their eyes the GDR was the culprit; it constructed a colossal structure and so it was their job to deface it. Two of the Wall’s most well-known artists; Thierry Noir and Christopher Bouchet argued that something had to be done in order to transform the Wall’s boring appearance. They believed that it was necessary for West Berliners to carry out some kind of physical reaction against the daily burden of dealing with the Wall. However, the objective of the graffiti was not to embellish or beautify the border. Instead, graffiti artists maintained that the inexistence of graffiti would lead the GDR to believe that West Berliners accepted the Wall. Since they were unable to make the Wall disappear, they attempted to show a kind of resistance that may otherwise have been more difficult to express consistently.”
