We're back at Montreal's Legal Wall de Rouen for the third time this August. I was a little disappointed this month, but I think a lot of artists were either on vacation or at StreetArt festivals (like Under Pressure in Montreal). Because the quality wasn't there, as it usually is. There were only a few high-quality works, but most of them were just tags. You be the judge.
Nous sommes de retour au Mur Légal de Rouen à Montréal pour la troisième fois durant ce mois d'aout. J'ai été un peu déçu durant ce mois mais je pense que de nombreux artistes étaient soit en vacances soit dans des festivals (comme Under Pressure à Montréal). Car la qualité n'était pas au RDV comme c'est le cas d'habitude. Il y a seulement quelques oeuvres de grande qualité mais la plupart était surtout des tags. A vous de juger...
HER left a new girl with eyes outlined in white triangles next to Dead Pool done by Wolf. This was my favorite part of the day. / FR : HER a laissé une nouvelle fille aux yeux soulignés d'un triange blanc à côté de Dead Pool par Wolf. C'est la partie préférée lors de cette journée.
WHERE
On rue de Rouen at railway level in Montreal. Here's a site to find legal walls near you and share them with us in the StreetArt Community: legal-walls.net.
Sur le rue de Rouen au niveau de la voie de chemin de fer à Montréal. Voilà un site pour trouver les murs légaux près de chez vous et de les partager avec nous dans la Communauté StreetArt: legal-walls.net.
🗺️ Position on OpenStreetMap
It's not often that I take a photo of the whole viaduct, including the two walls that make up the Legal Wall de Rouen. This gives you a better idea of the location, with a Bixi (bike-sharing) station nearby.
C'est rare que je fais une photo de l'ensemble du viaduc avec les deux murs qui composent le Mur Légal de Rouen. Cela vous donne une idée plus précise du lieu avec un station Bixi (vélo en autopartage) toute proche.
WHO
Tenscrew & DooWorld / Jean Briod
We begin our walk as usual. Incredibly, the work of Tenscrew has held up for over 2 weeks. Just next door, it has changed often. This time it's a collaboration between Angela Belén aka DooWorld, a Canadian artist, and Jean Briod, a Swiss artist who loves “not-so-nasty creatures”.
> Nous commençons notre balade comme d'habitude. C'est incroyable mais l'oeuvre de Tenscrew a résisté plus de 2 semaines. Par contre, juste à côté, cela a changé souvent. Cette fois il s'agit d'une collaboration de Angela Belén aka DooWorld, artiste canadienne avec Jean Briod, artiste suisse aimant les "créatures pas si méchantes".
RNO & SlamBoy
Then there are two letterings by unknown artists. Although the second, which I like the style of the letters but less its filling, is the work of one of the members of the collective RNO (or RNO is an artist, no idea).
Après il y a deux lettrages d'artistes inconnus. Bien que le second dont j'aime bien le style des lettres mais moins son remplissage soit l'oeuvre de l'un des membres du collectif RNO (ou RNO est un artiste, aucune idée).

Another Unknown 😀
Claudia Guindon
Alongside Create Your Own Luck by an unknown artist, Claudia Guindon, a regular Montreal artist, left her feather. / FR : A côté de Create Your Own Luck d'un artiste inconnu, Claudia Guindon, une artiste montréalaise habituée des lieux, a laissé sa plume.
As you can see, there's nothing exceptional about this first wall... Am I too hard? I've been spoiled 😀 / FR : Comme vous pouvez le constater rien d'exceptionnel sur ce premier mur... Suis je trop dur ? J'ai été trop gaté 😀
We cross de Rouen street, and there's not much there either... / FR : Nous traversons la rue de Rouen, et là non plus, il n'y pas grand chose...
> aside / ... à part HER et Wolf.
Wolf, as Dead Pool says it, made a great effort (a Max Effort) to achieve this superb lettering with the character. And finally, HER's style also stood out on the day.
Wolf, comme le dit Dead Pool a fait des efforts (un Max Effort) pour réaliser ce superbe lettrage avec le personnage. Et pour finir, le style de HER se démarque aussi lors de cette journée.
What's your favourite work of the day?
Quelle votre oeuvre favorite de la journée ?
A little further on from the Legal Wall de Rouen, I came across this slightly melancholy extraterrestrial. Great little tag... / FR : Un peu plus loin du Mur Légal de Rouen, j'ai croisé cet extraterrestre un peu mélancolique. Très bon petit tag...

Passe une excellente semaine
Woah this is a cool stretch of road. Reminds me of the city blocks in my Bushwick neighborhood, where commercial and industrial brick buildings are covered with street art for many street in a row. I can't even keep track of all the different artists and how often we get new art posted. I'm not nearly as well informed as I could be to know more of the history and background for the art and its artists.
It's cool to have walls like this where artists can practice freely. It's true that live cameras are needed to follow the evolution of this type of wall.
Have a great new week
How often do you see new pieces get painted? On a lot of the blocks here in Bushwick there is an unwritten code about how long the street art can stay up in one spot. It is always a shame to see beautiful street art mucked up with a few sloppy graffiti tags over top. That recently happened to this cool portrait of a pair of Puerto Rican sisters who both trained to become successful boxers. Ticks me off that people have such little respect that they would paint over someone else's worth that way.
I agree that HER's character is the best on the wall this time around. And also agree it looks like a slow time, not much new quality work.
Vacations and many StreetArt festivals across Quebec, this leaves room for "younger" artists.
Have a great week
