Turtle Caps (on door), Sake throwie at the top, Wastoids on the right, in Plateau End alley

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.

Turtle Caps (on door), Sake throwie at the top, Wastoids on the right, in Plateau End alley

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.

painted silhouettes installation featuring luggage, etc, by unidentified artist(s) in Pointe St-Charles

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.

Mullins

Behind the building with the legal wall, on Mullins street, is found another wall where graffiti seems to be tolerated. This wall separates a basketball court from a park and is painted on both sides.

Sur la rue Mullins derrière l’édifice offrant le mur légal se trouve un autre petit mur où les graffitis semblent tolérés. Ce mur sépare un terrain de basketball du parc adjacent et est peint des deux côtés.

One of Montreal’s few legal graffiti walls is situated in the South West neighbourhood, at the St-Charles Arena on Grand Trunk street in Pointe St-Charles. It is therefore usually referred to as the PSC wall (PSC = ‘Pointe St-Charles’), the Grand Trunk wall or the Charlevoix wall because of the proximity of the Charlevoix metro station. It is not as large as the legal graffiti tunnel on de Rouen but the overall quality of the work there is generally superior because there is less petty tagging and fewer amateurs.

Un des murs de graffiti légal de Montréal est situé dans le sud-ouest, à l’Arena St-Charles sur la rue Grand Trunk dans Pointe St-Charles. Il est en conséquence généralement appelé le mur PSC (PSC = ‘Pointe St-Charles’), le mur Grand Trunk ou le mur Charlevoix étant donnée la proximité de la station de métro de ce nom. Ce mur n’est pas aussi large que celui du tunnel de Rouen, mais la qualité des oeuvres qu’on y retrouve est généralement supérieure parce qu’il attire moins d’amateurs et de taggeurs.

New works

New graffiti October 2015

Gallery 2015/10/19 Art-hound Leave a comment

This post features photos of graffiti pieces created around Montreal during the first half of October 2015. Of course, this is just a fraction of what was produced in this city during that time – it is the best of what I was lucky enough to catch. If you want to see new works as soon as I photograph them, you can follow me on Instagram.

Cet article présente les meilleures pièces de graffitis qui ont été produites au cours de la première moitié d’octobre 2015 à Montréal et que j’ai eu la chance de trouver. Pour voir les nouvelles oeuvres aussitôt photographiées, vous êtes invités à me suivre sur Instagram.

Silver Beach @ JDM

On the first weekend of the month 18 artists answered Skor‘s invitation and covered the whole length of the JDM wall (actually all of it with the exception of the very first ‘Peace’ at the very left) with 16 pieces in silver as well as a few characters. My photos of the works created during this unofficial event have already been published in this Bombing Science article alongside those of others. Here they are again, in the same order as they appear on the wall.

Au cours du premier weekend du mois, 18 artistes ont répondu à l’appel de Skor et ont recouvert tout le mur JDM (en fait tout le mur sauf le premier ‘Peace’ à gauche) avec 16 pièces de couleur argent ainsi que quelques personnages. Mes photos des pièces créées au cours de cet événement non-officiel ont déjà été publiées dans cet article pour Bombing Science aux cotés de celles d’autres photographes. Les revoici, dans le même ordre dans lequel les pièces apparaissent sur le mur en question.

Jam de Rouen

The October 2015 graffiti jam at the legal graffiti tunnel on de Rouen was also held on the first weekend of the month. Here’s what I managed to photograph before it got covered with something new or vandalised.

L’édition d’octobre 2015 du Jam de Rouen au mur legal du tunnel de Rouen a aussi eu lieu au cours de la première fin de semaine du mois. Voici ce que j’ai eu la chance de photographier. Le reste était déjà recouvert de nouveau matériel ou vandalisé lors de ma visite le lendemain de l’événement.
