Astronaut Cosmonaut, Street art mural in Kreuzberg, Germany
The Astronaut Cosmonaut mural spans 22 meters high and 14 meters wide on a building wall, depicting a space explorer floating against a dark background.
French artist Victor Ash created this monumental artwork during the 2007 Backjumps urban art festival, reflecting the historical US-Soviet space competition through visual expression.
The mural stands as a central element of Berlin street art, representing the transformation of Kreuzberg into a center for contemporary urban artistic expression.
Visitors can find this large-scale artwork at the intersection of Mariannenstrasse and Skalitzer Strasse, within walking distance from public transportation stations.
The original installation included an interactive element where a projected flag shadow from a nearby car dealership created movement in the astronaut's hand during nighttime.
