Jackie Robinson's breakthrough at Stade De Lorimier Lives on with Stadium Art Movement T-shirt

Summer is a fine time to wear a T-shirt with a defunct stadium printed on it.

2nd June, 2013 (Montreal) Stade de Lorimier no longer stands but there is still a playing field where the legendary Jackie Robinson broke the colour barrier while playing for the Montreal Royals during the 1940s. This shows the stadium looking towards the city centre before the architects of the New International School got their hands on the skyline. In the foreground we can see the roof of the now-famous Grover Building. Despite the disappearance from the landscape of this absolute baseball treasure, this district still remains a very vibrant and desirable area of Montreal's East End.

Montréalité Stages First Public Mural in Montreal from the Stadium Art Movement

15th June, 2012 (Montreal) A mural for Montréalité [see here] depicting an aerial view of Montreal including the famous Molson Stadium is halfway complete. Here is a very rough video documenting it at this stage before it gets even more detailed.

Stadium Art Movement Commemorates the Birthplace of Grid Iron Football

Nestled at the foot of Mont-Royal, Molson Stadium is one of the more historically significant stadiums in the world.

12th June, 2012 (Montreal) Here is a mural of Montreal we have been doing for Montréalité. Still a work in progress,  it will eventually include the famous Olympic Stadium but now that the famous Molson Stadium has been inked into the skyline, the mural can now be considered an official output from the Stadium Art Movement.

Molson Stadium happens to be one of the most historically significant stadiums in all of North America. Site of the match which pitted Harvard visitors against McGill in a game of Rugby that combined the "Boston Rules" (an anachronistic code made up of remnants of Irish Football and other elements) this stadium saw some some other made-up rules added to what we have come to identify as Grid Iron Football today.
Make no mistake, American Football and Canadian Football each have their roots in this famous game between Harvard and McGill, whereby two teams sat down and ironed-out the new laws of play. At the time, there were so many versions of the game that a code was needed. After all, how can you win a league if each match you play on the way to becoming Champion has different rules and regulations than the last one?

Mural at Microbrasserie Le castor in Rigaud Quebec

3rd April, 2012 (Montreal) Here is a quick vid time lapse done of a mural I helped with in Rigaud, Quebec that celebrates my love of vintage houses and institutions. I was asked by the owners to collaborate with artist Adele Reeves, and responded that I could at least help with the buildings. Rigaud is home to some elaborate examples of classic Quebec architecture so it proved to be irresistible to make them the stars of the show.
