John Lennon Memorial Wall in Prague
Tamp, Patrick, and Travis at the John Lennon Memorial Wall
This wall was created as a memorial to John Lennon after his assassination in 1980. It began with pictures of him and meaningful lyrics from his songs. These expressions of grief were whitewashed daily by the police. The art and poetry continued to reappear. Over time this wall beacame a place for broader expressions of dissatisfaction and dreams for the future. It was a peaceful gathering place and the contents of the wall were allowed to remain.
