“Test the Rest” by Birgit Kinder, East Side Gallery
Mühlenstraße, Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg
Berlin, September 2011
“The longest section of the Berlin Wall still standing lies north of the bridge Oberbaumbrücke in the Kreuzberg-Friedrichshain borough. This 1.3-kilometer-long section of the Wall along Mühlenstraße was painted in the spring of 1990 by artists from 21 different countries who produced 106 large-scale murals. Some of the best-known images include Birgit Kinder's ‘Test the best,’ a painting of a Trabi (an East German car) breaking through the Wall...” (East Side Gallery, Berlin.de)
