Still at the Under Pressure festival that took place this summer in Montreal, we are now at the batiment La Patrie on rue Sainte Catherine to discover what looks like a series of paintings on the base. It's a shame that this building has been derelict for several years; it was the former office of the newspaper La Patrie until 1960. In 2007 it was bought by the Church of Scientology to supposedly renovate it, but nothing has happened since... (see article in Devoir - only in French). What a waste.
Toujours au festival Under Pressure qui s'est déroulée cet été à Montréal, nous sommes maintenant au niveau du batiment La Patrie sur la rue Sainte Catherine pour découvrir comme une série de tableaux peints à la base. C'est dommage que cet immeuble est à l'abandon depuis plusieurs années, ancien bureau du journal La Patrie jusqu'en 1960. En 2007 acheté par l'Église de Scientologie pour soi-disant le renover, mais rien depuis... (voir l'article du Devoir). Quel gachis.
Fortunately, every year, Under Pressure gives it a little facelift. As I looked, I realised I'd forgotten to take a photo of Jasp's lettering, the second from the left.
Heureusement que chaque année, Under Pressure lui offre un petit rajeunissement. En regardant je viens de voir que j'ai oublié de prendre en photo le lettrage de Jasp, le deuxième en partant de la gauche.

WHO
Tshoko
Tshoko is an artist, illustrator and tattoo artist based in Montreal. It's been a while since I've seen any new murals from her, last time StreetArt #655. Cool to see her again with ‘Ride’ em Girls’.

Origami
Here she's a regular in my StreetArt series, with her origami cranes you'll no doubt recognise Origami Explorateur, always full of poetry with this sailor: ’ In the alleys, the sailor gets lost among the tentacles of the city, looking for the poetry of colours on the concrete walls...’ (source Instagram).
Là c'est une habituée de ma série StreetArt, avec ses origamis de grues vous avez sans doute reconnu Origami Explorateur, toujours plein de poésie avec ce marin : « Dans les ruelles, le marin se perd parmi les tentacules de la ville, cherchant la poésie de couleurs sur les murs bétonnés... » (source Instagram).

Thanks for sharing!

All good stuff. I like Origami the best. Sad that newspapers are almost all gone 🙁
In this case, the newspaper no longer exists and the building has been abandoned. Really sad...
Enjoy the week
