Mauer = Park - Niki Matita

about

The Berlin Mauerpark (Wall Park) was created in the 1990s in the border area on the demarcation line between Berlin (West) and the capital of the GDR, in-between the then districts of Wedding in West-Berlin, Mitte and Prenzlauer Berg in East-Berlin. Looking closer there are more borders and boundaries that manifest in this area. After a complicated, protracted process involving, among other things, ownership rights to land and conflicts between various user groups, the park was recently extended and this area opened with a so-called archaeological window into the recent past. Part of the negotiations was a new development area with a "gated community" for which future conflicts with less privileged residents and users. such as the very active graffiti sprayer scene by parts of the remaining wall already seem pre-programmed.
