25T47 Berlin’s Bocho: Women of Prenzl’ Berg

E46, B41.

Based in Berlin since the late-1990s, Spanish-born artist El Bocho is well-known for his many colourful displays of street art throughout the city. I met with a friend M. in Prenzlauer Berg: first, at Maria Bonita for their grilled burrito; followed by a walk through the Kiez in easy pursuit of ice cream and coffee at Süßfein on a warm summer afternoon. What’s shown are examples of Bocho’s work we found within an area smaller than 10 city-blocks.

    Love how you captured Bocho’s work in such a compact area — it really shows how his art blends into daily Berlin life. The mix of humour and emotion in his pieces never fails to stand out. Looks like a perfect afternoon: burrito, street art, and ice cream.

      It’s difficult to separate Berlin from El Bocho; that is, anyone who spends time in Berlin will even without recognition most likely see one of his works somewhere in the city. Thanks for your kind comment, and for stopping by!

        Absolutely agree — his presence in Berlin is almost like urban punctuation. You walk a few blocks, and there’s another piece quietly watching you. Thanks for the post again — great to see El Bocho’s work documented with such care!
