The Meeting of Styles — Montreal Graffiti

In spite of graffiti’s somewhat ruthless stance, this docu-short looks at how graffiti has become part of everyday, cityscape in Montreal. It is not only a visual journey into street dialogue but insightful interview into the role graffiti plays and has come to shape the corporate terrain. The union of art and business —the Meeting of Styles. CLIP 1

En dépit du caractère quelque peut subversif du graffiti, ce court documentaire regarde comment le graffiti est devenu un élément de notre paysage urbain. C’est non seulement un voyage visuel dans le dialogue de la rue mais aussi une entrevue perspicace sur le rôle du graffiti et sur son influence sur le milieu corporatif. La rencontre de l’art et des affaires — the Meeting of Styles.
