35 years of the East Side Gallery - preservation, interests & strategies

Appropriate approaches have been discussed, argued and fought over in recent years. Many works of art have been renewed, while the historical substance is dwindling and the conflict between art and monument values, tourist use and preservation is becoming ever more apparent. To date, the monument has been repainted, restored and partially renovated several times. This raises many questions, which will be addressed in a panel discussion at the event.
