Urban art gallery....



After our unsuccessful trip to the Art Gallery last week, closed on Tuesday :) we carried on over into the city to check out the latest addition to 140ART. From afar 140 William although a uniquely designed building can look a little 'grey'.. get closer and it's a riot of vibrant artwork on street level, remember Anya Brock's budgies! Some of the art is temporary but I believe the above piece in Globe Lane by Kyle Hughes Odgers one of Australia's leading artists is there to stay! Just a few steps away the mural below by the future generation of young artists.. Yr 11 students of Mater Dei College. Vive l'art! More sculptures from this years Sculpture by the Sea tomorrow. Happy Monday, or Sunday :)

  3. The second one reminds me of a mural on a bridge underpass in New Smyrna Beach, Florida.

  11. Fantastic murals! Love the themes and colors.

    PS: Hubby is now in Perth. He said the weather was quite nice - warm in the day and cool at night. I am now super jealous!

  16. Brilliant, in many ways. Love the idea of a city held level by balanced sand bags.

  18. Perhaps I'm wrong or may be I'm making a rash generalisation but when I see such brightly coloured murals I imagine that they are created by optimistic artists.
