East Side Gallery in Berlin

I once worked for a non-profit that was centered around murals and public art. We commissioned many of the mural programs for the City of Los Angeles. It’s where I learned of the importance of public art as social glue. I appreciate the East Side Gallery in Berlin, where artists have taken over sections of the Berlin Wall with art.

This is perhaps the most famous section depicting Leonid Brezhnev, the General Secretary of the Soviet Union at the time, and Erich Honecker, the General Secretary of the Socialist Unity Party of the GDR. Based on a real kiss!

Denver, Colorado! 

I walked over 21,000 steps yesterday. My feet are sore, but it was worth every step to see so much of this great city.
