About
This mural, painted in 2012 by the artist Arpi, René-Pierre Beaudry, stands at 2615 rue Notre-Dame Ouest in Le Sud-Ouest, one of Montreal's southwestern districts. It is a street-art piece, produced under the city's Programme graffitis et murales in partnership with MU, an organisation that works with artists on public walls.
What to expect
The mural is a stop for anyone interested in the city's outdoor art. Because it lives on a working street rather than inside a gallery, it fits naturally into a walk through the neighbourhood, where you can look at it at your own pace and combine it with other sights along the way.
- Type of visit: a short, free look at a large painted wall, best taken on foot.
- Location: rue Notre-Dame Ouest, in Le Sud-Ouest, Montreal, Canada.
- Artist and programme: Arpi (René-Pierre Beaudry), created through the Programme graffitis et murales with MU.
Around the mural
Le Sud-Ouest is a mixed residential and commercial area, and a walk along the surrounding streets pairs well with a visit here. The city's own mural catalogue lists this work with further details for those who want to read more before or after their trip.
