Dec 15, 2010 · 7013 views

The videos are from Urban Observations. Urban Observations is an online series that follows six artists through New York City and Berlin.

For example Gina Tonic, one of Berlin popular drag queens. “If the city of Berlin were a drag queen, she’d be fat and ugly, but with a heart of gold,” says Gina Tonic. A born Berliner, she speaks about her city, about how Berlin has changed and about what it means to live and work in the illusory world of the Berlin nightlife.

    Berlin is a horizontal city, says Berlin based art historian Nico Anklam. Although this is not true in a metaphorical sense – Berlin will always remain somehow provincial. He speaks about the art world of Berlin, the difference between Berlin and New York, and why the “caravan of artists” might move on to another city some day.
