No One Had any Intention of Building a Wall.
And yet, they did. In the middle of a meadow. It’s just a wall. About 10 metres long, 2.5 metres high. No other structure around. So I guess it’s fair game for sprayers. And the taggers who just spray without artistic intention at least appreciated the panda and his dream of bamboo and let it be.

Six of a Kind
This wall on a vacant lot in the woods near Teplice – I was wondering if the artist honed his inimitable style on it. Sadly, I didn’t see any other of his works nor could I find any information about him.
A Few Wise Words
and some not so much.
One of the many very witty and occasionally sharp aphorisms of Georg Christoph Lichtenberg, a physicist and satirist who was one of the foremost European thinkers of the 18th century.
This wall stands in the middle of a little square, next to the Lichtenbergstraße in Darmstadt. I don’t know if it was purposely designed to invite others to add their thoughts or if sprayers just gravitate naturally to it. The slogans are mainly political (if crude) and their topicality suggest that the wall is at least occasionally scrubbed. I have no idea where the stag beetle comes in.
