The Wall

The group Unknown Berlin visited an exhibition by the Brandenburg Gate Foundation on January 24rd, 2025.

At the historical site, the former residence of the painter Max Liebermann right next to the Brandenburg Gate, we first saw pictures from both East and West Berlin that were created before the fall of the Wall and dealt with the situation in the divided city in very different ways. In a second section, we then saw works that were created after the fall of the Wall and documented the not always easy merging of the two halves of the city.

Even 35 years after the fall of the Wall, this exhibition touched us and explained a lot.
