Culture in Berlin: Berlin University of the Arts

♫ Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros – 40 Day Dream ♫  The Berlin University of the Arts (short in German: UdK) is probably one of the renowned public art schools in Germany. If you manage to get hold of a place at this institution you are more than lucky and already (if you graduate successfully) have a high-light on your curriculum vitae. So, it was no surprise that a lot of people were going to take a look at it on the annual open house days of the university. Jana is on holiday at the moment, she will bring some lovely summer pictures along when she comes back (hopefully!).

Culture in Berlin: Old National Gallery

If there is one thing that takes my breath away it must be art. I am totally fascinated by it! In school I learned a lot about different epochs and of course somehow discovered my favourite ones. One of those is Romanticism, especially the German painter Casper David Friedrich has captured my attention. Therefore it was truely special for me to actually stand infront of an original painting by him. If you want to see some of his paintings and many, many more you have to visit the Old National Gallery in Berlin. Definitely worth a visit! All the best,  Vanessa
