This is the corner of rue des Rosiers and rue des Hospitalières St. Gervais (a very long name for a very short street). The street art appears to be a collaboration: I don't know who did the robotic creature in the background, but I think I've seen his (her?) work in the 13th; Nature's Revenge is usually associated with the artist Ludo, but I can't see what he contributed here (maybe the butterflies?); the beautiful tigers are the work of Mosko et Associés (founded by two old friends, Michel Allemand and Gérard Laux, who grew up in the area north of Montmartre called Moskowa).

Alexa, This is a fascinating collaboration of street art. Why can't people do more things like this on the train cars too? Thanks for playing along today. Here’s my Dreaming of France meme
ReplyDeleteYes artwork like that would look so much better on our trains than the usual grafitti. I'm always dreaming of Paris too.
