This is a mural at 5111 rue Paré in Montreal, Canada. It was created in 2024 by the artist Zek one and is part of the city's Programme d'art mural (second strand), carried out in partnership with Prévention Côte-des-Neiges-Notre-Dame-de-Grâce, a local community organisation.
About the visit
Street art like this is best enjoyed on foot, at your own pace, as a short stop during a walk through the neighbourhood. The mural is a fixed work on a building, so there is no entry to buy and no set time to arrive. It suits anyone interested in contemporary public art and in how Montreal commissions murals through its own programme.
What to know before you go
- The mural is on rue Paré, in the Côte-des-Neiges–Notre-Dame-de-Grâce area of the city.
- It was made in 2024 under the city's mural art programme, with the local partner named above.
- The City of Montreal keeps an online record of the work, which lists the artist and the partner organisation.
Around the mural
Because the mural sits in a residential street, it works well combined with other things nearby. Montreal's broader collection of murals, spread across many districts, makes the city a good place to look for more works once you have seen this one.
