# Berlin’s Painting Reality

Do you remember that ominous [massive paint attack](/massive-paint-attack-berlin/) in Berlin earlier this year? A group of unknown bikers hit the Rosenthaler Platz in the heart of Berlin and spilled about 500 liters of colorful, water-based environmentally-friendly paint on the asphalt. Back then, a rumor circulated in the web about whether this paint attack was just another form of guerrilla marketing or a brilliant urban art action?


## Massive Paint Attack Video




Today the [official documentary video](http://painting.iepe.net/), named “Painting Reality”, was published by **IEPE & the anonymous crew**! It shows the whole procedure of spilling paint on the junction, which only took a few seconds.

As I said in the former post about that intervention: “It’s a quite nice idea and a great realization, ’cause the whole painting was done by the public.”* Nice work, folks!

By the way, don’t worry about the advert preceding the video, it’s not mine!
