Berlin Wall art comes to London Berlin Wall artist Thierry Noir, who spent five years in the Eighties defiantly painting the western side of the wall, has been painting a large mural outside the German embassy in Belgrave Square and in several rooms in what used to be the East German Embassy. This artistic initiative - "East Meets West: Bringing Down the Wall" - was organised by the German Embassy and the Howard Griffin Gallery to mark the 25th anniversary tomorrow of the fall of the Berlin Wall. "Painting in such a setting this week has been very special," said Noir, a Frenchman who moved to West Berlin in the early Eighties. I have a simple message: don't repeat the mistakes of our parents. The Berlin Wall has gone but there are many other walls. Noir's external murals will be on display for anyone passing through Belgrave Square over the coming days. But on Wednesday from 9am to 9pm visitors will be able to go inside the former East German Embassy at 34 Belgrave Square and see the results of Noir's playful handiwork plastered all over the walls of the second floor.
