Wild Monday

 
Found this mural... or is it a graffiti rather? in my dino-stash from April.
There are never artist´s names as it is actually forbidden to place murals or any kind of art there.
I see it as a mural as it is well done and not just color without style. 
 

 

This is for Sami´s COLOURFULWORLD Monday Murals.

The internet series:

"Germany to scare: 30 ruins of days long gone


 Beer brush, Berlin

Since its opening in 1976, this futuristic building has towered over the Berlin district of Steglitz, popularly known as the "Bierpinsel." After several unsuccessful attempts to revive it as a restaurant and nightclub, it has stood empty since 2006. In 2010, an attempt was made to convert the building into an art gallery and café, but this also failed.

The tower, which was listed as a historic monument in 2017, is now awaiting a new beginning with its new owners."

Interesting one, huh? 

Henry 🦁

Happy Monday!

Nice find, well done indeed. I like the Bierpinsel and understand why people named it that way. Oh and I love the colourful Henry!

Unique mural. That Berlin building has quite a colorful history.

So it is a mural after all :-) I would not visit the Bierpinsel -way too high up!

Iris Flavia said...

Yes, let´s see what becomes of the Bierpinsel! Not that I will visit, though...

I actually like the mural :). And Henry is looking very striking! The Bierpinsel building is very interesting. Thanks for participating in Monday Murals Iris.

So it is a mural after all :-) I though Henry is suiting. I hope to learn what becomes of the Bierpinsel.

Sad that it wasn't converted. The Bierspinel looks really nice.
