Public Art in Berlin
Berlin, like many cities in Europe during World War II, was devastated by airstrikes and bombing. However, in rebuilding the city, a new generation of public art began to spring up to reflect the city’s tragic past and also its growth into a modern metropolis.
It is hard to walk through the parks and streets without being reminded of the horrors of war. There are, however, several statues and sculptures which survived the bombings during World War II, creating a strange and interesting mixture of art.
