This mural on rue de Maisonneuve Est, at numbers 235 to 255, is a street-art work in the Ville-Marie borough of Montreal. It was painted in 2009 by the artists Phillip Adams and David Guinn, and it was produced through the city's Programme graffitis et murales, with MU as the organising body.
What to expect
The mural is a public artwork on a building facade, so it is best seen as a stop during a walk along the street rather than a visit to an indoor site. Because it is a wall painting, you can view it at any time without a ticket, though daylight will show its colours most clearly.
The area
- It lies in Ville-Marie, the central borough of Montreal, close to the downtown core.
- The city's murals programme, run with MU, has commissioned a large number of works across Montreal, so the mural can be seen as part of a wider street-art scene.
- Its address makes it easy to combine with other sights in the central districts.
For more details on the work, the City of Montreal publishes a dedicated page for the mural on its murals website, which is a useful reference before you go.
