Street Art and Murals in Montreal

Artsology visited Montreal in the summer of 2010, and took these pictures of the various painted murals, graffiti and street art that we saw throughout the city. There were plenty of murals that were clearly authorized by the building's owner, as they advertised or visually promoted the commercial establishment located there. Others tended towards the typical street art produced in the darkness of night or under cover.
