The Gold was there all of a sudden. A few days ago, it first came into the field of view. The heads of the cast-iron bollards were painted golden. On Saturday, on the drive to work, jump a really eye-catching. At the Nollendorfplatz in Schöneberg, almost all of the heads are painted at the Viktoria-Luise-Platz. More precisely, one would have to say: sprayed. Sometimes the Sprayer excess paint is gone, the neck of the bollard down. In General, the iron things but accurately painted. Always at the top. Otherwise, the color is see in the city is nowhere to be found. Interviewed passers-by say: “no, I hadn’t noticed”. Most of the slide: “…but looks pretty”.
Who was it now? Call Oliver Schworck, the city Council in Schöneberg, earlier times for the regulatory Agency responsible for the youth. If it is a white, then he. First reaction: “That’s funny.” No, he had heard nothing. Of the district, it was not safe, “the has not be the money”. An Internet search confirmed Schworcks evaluation. Who “prescribed Poller” in the database of the district Assembly enters, gets a couple of hits to the activists demanded plastic bollards for the protection of Bicycle paths. So, in fact, no official art.
“We weren’t”
once more to a thorough inspection ride through the neighborhood. Hundreds of bollards are sprayed, at the two prominent places, but also in the nondescript side streets. Surprisingly, There are also silver heads. In some Places, all painted by ten bollards at a corner, sometimes only eight. A COP would say: “Here the perpetrator was disturbed.” Rare metal poles are painted at the top, usually just to give the cast-iron bollards, the old-world charm.
the direction of the East, the last spray-painted bollards (here silver) at the Bülow – corner of m street into the eye. Yeah, that’s it! It is precisely here that opened a year ago, but the Museum of “Urban Nation”, dedicated to street art. Into it. No, regrets the receptionist, “we were not the”. Noticed it’s not him but still. Then he says the same sentence as before the city Council: “The district was not in it.”
