Marseille was definitely dirtier than the other cities we’ve been to, but it also had some of the coolest street art. Here’s a photo dump of some of the things we saw.
Murals
I like captain pickle in the middle
Fishmongerzilla
It’s cool, but I wish it wasn’t so “urine-y”
Bird man is so fat, when he lies around the house, he lies around the house. Get it?
Thematically Appropriate Shutter Art
A number of stores had sweet mural art that reflected the services they provided.
This worked. Now I really want some orange chucks.
Droopy never got enough airtime
What’s up indeed
High Fidelity Graffiti
Most of these are executed like murals, just smaller scale.
It’s the graffiti equivalent of angry birds
Animal on acid; you should hear him play the drums
The incredible adventures of hungry panda and necro-rooster
Low Fidelity Graffiti
Not all graffiti artists are doing crazy full-color work with shading. But they still make some cool stuff.
Sort of Fraggle Rock-ish
It’s Totoro! I just wish the artist had been better
The Missfits
Ontologies are hard. These ones didn’t shake out cleanly into another category.
This might just be an ad. I have no idea.
Not technically graffiiti, but I love the little pigs.
This Pink Panther was actually in Paris.
