art'otel Berlin and some other art stuff too.

We stayed at art´otel Mitte during our visit to Berlin. The hotel displays the art of Georg Baselitz as in a gallery. There where huge signed prints in the lobby and some smaller ones in hotel rooms. Although I´m not huge fan of Baselitz (I went to see his exhibition in Helsinki some time ago. I like of his way to use colours but otherwise- not my piece of cake) I find the idea very cool. We chose this hotel for it´s location. There are two other art´otels in Berlin- the artists are Andy Warhol and Wolf Vostell.

Aaron enjoyed watching out from the big windows. The very Berlin-like view was not the most beautiful though.

 

Because of not staying at the Andy Warhol themed hotel I needed to visit the Museum for Contemporary Art, Hamburger Bahnhof to see some original paintings by Warhol. I love his work and always try to visit art museums on my travels to see his work. 

There was also an interesting exhibition about drawings of oriental scenes and people by Else Lasker-Schüler.

I also loved the room full of paintings on blue. And the long corridor with exit-signs.
