hindesky Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 So the two murals I posted yesterday are actually for a different mural fest, Street Art For Mankind. There will be several artist from around the world that will be painting 19 murals in downtown Houston, MrD1987 and Hera of herakut both told me. Hera of herakut is from Germany and MrD1987 is from Houston but originally from France. He also said they will be doing another mural fest in the summer. I was able to find 7 of them so far but will continue looking for the others. MrD said some of the artist haven't arrived yet. https://streetartmankind.org https://www.instagram.com/streetartmankind/ Hera of harekut. https://www.instagram.com/hera_herakut/ Don't know the artist creating this one at the Hyatt Regency.

004n063 Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 It's been a long time since I've used the word "epic" unironically, but the scale and pace and density of this in combination with last year's BABC really is epic. I am surely not the only teacher planning a downtown mural scavenger hunt field trip for next year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hindesky Posted June 30, 2023 Author Share Posted June 30, 2023 "A towering multi-colored bear. Majestic and introspective portraits. The silhouettes of ballerinas. A giant hand grasping at planet Earth. These are just some of the new artworks that now adorn buildings across Downtown Houston, giving the city a new and meaningful burst of color and creativity." https://www.papercitymag.com/arts/houston-downtown-becomes-mural-art-street-wonderland-international-artists/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I count six, but I'm pretty sure there are seven or eight more within the area captured in this photo, just not visible from this vantage point.

hindesky Posted January 20 Author Share Posted January 20 Saw a mural artist creating a new mural on the 1111 Main St. parking garage facing Dallas St. Back in the summer several of the mural artists told me they were going to create another set in late summer, those never happened and I blame it on our super hot summer. I think this is the promised second set. This building and it's associated parking garage where recently purchased by Harris County. https://www.upartstudio.org/projects/ https://streetartmankind.org/bigartbiggerchange/ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
