Ed Rooney Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 I'm wondering how many other cities around the world are producing this new street art . . . besides New York, San Francisco, and London? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed Rooney Posted November 26, 2015 Author Share Posted November 26, 2015 So . . . a worldwide phenomenon this is. Amazing. Perhaps I should not, but I assume that at least most of the time permission was given to use the space . . . and at least some of the time the artists were commissioned and paid.

John Mitchell Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 There is more public art in general sprouting up around Vancouver. However, when it comes to large murals, there are fewer and fewer old buildings to paint them on. They are all getting torn down to make room for gleaming towers of glass and steel, which don't make very good canvasses. For instance, this leaping Orca mural was a familiar downtown landmark until the brick building was demolished not long ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arletta Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Yes, it's in Poland too and I'm going to shoot them all possible in Warsaw, but... yeah but... the weather doesn't help I love this new art trend, impressive and I think it brings light and life to the grey blocks of flats...

Michael Ventura Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Yes, there is big surge of murals all around and not just in the large cities, also out in the suburbs. I can't seem to post a medium size image anymore, it is either a little thumbnail or a large one!

John Mitchell Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Lots of smaller murals showing up in unlikely places around Vancouver. This one beneath an overpass. Street murals are fun to photograph, but is there any buyer interest, I wonder. P.S. I can't seem to post medium-sized images either, only the monsters.

AlbertSnapper Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Street murals are fun to photograph, but is there any buyer interest, I wonder. I don't make a habit of photographing large street art murals, but I do have a few here. This last year has produced 4 different sales, for $217.71. So if you're passing.....take that photo !

Grethe Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 A long, new mural in Oslo Norway “Mare Nostrum” by the artists Torunn Skjelland and Vigdis Fjellheim, depicting the struggles of the boat refugees crossing the Mediterranean sea: And also EXDTB7, EXDTAR, EXDTAD, EXDTA7 (Stavanger Norway has its own international street art festival Nuart every year, might get back to that later.)
