Artist Note:

Berlin is one of the most fascinating cities if not the most fascinating in the World to me.

It is surely a home for me in Europe.

It has a history of recent changes like no other country in the World.

In 1989 The Wall came down.

A country torn in two was now unified again.

Berlin celebrated year in and year out with the greatest electronic festival in the World...The Love Parade.

Germany is now part of the European Union.

The Wall serves as a reminder and symbol of the past.

Many artists sought refuge and inspiration during the times of The Wall including the original punk Iggy Pop.

Lou Reed of The Velvet Undergound recorded "Berlin" there.

The great David Bowie recorded three of his greatest and most critically acclaimed recordings in Berlin.

Pink Floyd was inspired by The Wall and made a legendary recording there.

U2 recorded one of their greatest CD's Achtung Baby in Berlin shortly after The Wall fell.

Berlin a city no longer divided by a Wall.

Berlin a city of music.

Berlin a city of love.
