Formerly symbol of division and the Cold War, one of the last remaining stretches of the Berlin Wall now has become symbol of unification and peace.
Walking alongside it, you see one work of art abruptly ending and giving way to the next. There is no room for pause, as in a real museum, you move from an abstract depiction to a poetic painting, from a political message to an idealistic one. There are the trompe l'oeuils, the most famous of which a Trabant breaking through the wall. Overall, the spirit is the one that was predominant in Europe and above all Berlin in the early 1990s: hopes for a new, more just world and for a peaceful world.
