The Murals of Montreal

Like most industrialized countries,  Canada,  as well as its cities and provinces, spends more per capita on art than the US.  Permanent sculptures and temporary installations fill the city of Montreal.

But what makes Montreal special is finding a mural on, and around every corner.
