New murals and other painted works October 2015

Here’s a photo gallery of the new murals and other painted works of smaller scale finished during the month of October. Separate articles were just published featuring new pasted works (wheatpastes, stickers, etc) and new graffiti (part 1, part 2). If you want to see new works as soon as I photograph them, you can follow me on Instagram.

Cet article présente les nouvelles murales ainsi que les autres pièces peintes de plus petite taille terminées au cours du mois de septembre. Les nouvelles oeuvres collées (collages, autocollants, etc) ainsi que les nouveautés graffiti (partie 1, partie 2) font l’objet d’articles à part. Pour voir les nouvelles oeuvres aussitôt photographiées, vous êtes invités à me suivre sur Instagram.

This building on Savoie was painted by Les Hommes De Lettres to look like a stack of books. See following two photos for frontal views of the building’s two surfaces. The wall beneath the building was done by the same artists last year.

Chris Dyer repaired and modified his piece (left) in the alley between St-Laurent and Clark (click on latter link to see the earlier piece). His brother Peru143 filled the space to his right.

While Chris Dyer redid his piece seen above, Turtle Caps redid this adjacent door which, incidentally, used to feature something by Peru Dyer. Above the door is a new fat throwie by Sake and to the right an older throwie by Peru143‘s Wastoids. Also visible are tags by Omen and others.

After Turtle Caps redid the above garage door, it was consistently vandalised by taggers. A turf war ensued, with each party going over each other within a day or two. This is the third version of Turtle Caps’ contribution.

See above. This is something like Turtle Caps‘ seventh version of this door. Notice the new Waxhead piece on the left.

Waxhead in the alley between St-Laurent and Clark. Also visible in the top left corner of the photo is a wood-up by Loks; see further down this gallery for close-up.

Just like Turtle Caps above, Waxhead‘s piece was also quickly vandalised by taggers. Instead of simply repairing the old one, Waxhead came up with something new.

Gene Pendon added to his homage to Dany Laferriere on Savoie. The head part dates back to last summer while the sitting/typing part was added this October.

The facelift of Savoie behind the Grande Bibliothèque also included the creation of a long rebus (a puzzle made of words and pictures) along a low wall. See next photos for a view from the other end and for details. By La Camaraderie.

This boarded up perimeter of a construction site covered in ad posters was taken over by one artist or various people, presumably to make a statement against the gentrification of Pointe St-Charles. Silhouettes of walking people were painted in white over posters on the two sides of the lot, old suitcases with messages about rent on them were affixed to their ‘hands’, and heads of various politicians were cut out of recent electoral signs and put up above the fence as if they were looking down on the residents forced to leave their neighbourhood.
