Culture: The Global Trend Of Artfully Painting Buildings

Globalization has many faces. One of them is the trend of artfully painting buildings. While visiting New York City I always indulge in seeing the artful murals & graffiti you can find on many buildings in Manhattan and in Brooklyn`s district Williamsburg.

But it seems that this trend is flourishing worldwide. Yesterday, as I visited Köln (Cologne/Germany) again, I discovered that some streets have changed in recent years.

Some places look as cool now as the coolest parts of New York. I am happy to share some of my impressions with you. The picture were shot at Luxemburger Str. and the area around.

Enjoy!
