The street art can be found in almost every part of the city, but there are certain areas where there is a high concentration of it. Last week I stumbled upon a couple more areas.
When I was in the historic center of the city I was walking along Regina Street which in recent years has been pedestrianized, and is now lined with restaurants, cafes and bars. I came upon this painting, on the wall of a children's playground, which is a parody of Diego Rivera's famous mural "Sunday Afternoon in the Alameda Central".
Even with the Vasconcelos Library and the glitzy Buenavista Mall a stone's throw away, It is still not a very good neighborhood, and I would not recommend wandering around here at night. But if you are interested in street art, this would be one of the top places in the city to see it.
Nothing excites my senses like vivid colors. This is a feast for the eyes.
ReplyDeleteEven though it was a gray, dreary day, and it is a somewhat dicey neighborhood, it was quite a sight to see!
