Cologne (Germany) Street Art & Graffiti
I have a true affinity for art, graffiti, & stickers spotted on the streets. It's whimsical & charming & something I look forward to at any given time. When it comes to travel, street art is even more of a thrill. My last graffiti post showcased the eclectic range of street art from Paris; I also highlighted Copenhagen, Oceanside, Los Angeles, Seattle, Venice Beach, Canada, & Israel.
The quest to discover various types of street art makes every day less mundane & more like a personal art gallery. Wherever you go, colossal city or tiny town, there will always be art forms to find. Some cities have designated walls where artists are welcome to create their work. This post is a collage of Cologne, Germany graffiti.
I'm girl who looks at the ground, but not in a shy, mousy type of way. I mean this in the way that I'm always looking for something. You wouldn't believe how many of my trip souvenirs came from finding stuff on the ground — scarves, key chains, figurines, pens, lighters, & even a glass cup. It's just a part of my nature to look for the unexpected.
That's the reason why street art & graffiti have remained a constant point of amusement over the years. I love free stuff & a complimentary tour of a public, local museum is the way to go. Although it was a brief day excursion through Cologne, Germany, I was able to see a decent amount of public works. Twerk Biatch! is my ultimate favorite. Looking back at photos like this makes me want to get out of the house, drive a few miles, & roam the streets to see what art awaits.

I love street art too unless it's on precious buildings! I remember at my old university there was a huge graffiti of Joker.
ReplyDeleteIt was amazing!

Yes, the terms are certainly interchangeable! I love Twerk Biatch too!! :]
ReplyDeleteDo you have any where you live? :]
ReplyDeleteThey can be. :]
ReplyDeleteI don't care for tagging where someone is just spray painting their name or something. I love well thought out art. :]
ReplyDeleteI totally agree! The Joker graffiti sounds cool. :]
ReplyDelete:]
ReplyDeleteYes, it definitely depends on the graffiti. When it's just a wall of people writing their names, I don't care for it. London it is! :]
ReplyDeleteI don't know. I'm not artistic in any way. It seems so hard to paint on those huge walls. :]
ReplyDeleteThakns Shveta. :]

ReplyDeleteMe too. :]
ReplyDeleteI only visited Cologne whilst in Germany - can't wait to go back & explore more. :]
ReplyDeleteDo you have a favorite city or place to visit in Germany? :]

I love city graffiti! We have so many murals in Lexington and it's honestly one of my favorite parts of this city.

If you make it to NYC, you'll have to check out the graffiti in Brooklyn's Bushwick neighborhood. It's incredibly cool!
