Maison Levanneur - Theme: City of the ImpressionistsPhoto: Emilie, OTI Saint Germain Boucles de Seine
In collaboration with the NGO Street Art for Mankind, the social landlords (1001 Vies Habitat and Résidences Yvelines Essonne) and the Department of Yvelines, the six facades were selected for their visibility, their location in the city, and/or the cultural dimension of the building. Each facade is associated with a theme related to the history and values of Chatou.
From Maison Levanneur to the Sabinettes residences, from Collège Auguste Renoir to the Hal Singer Space, the street art route invites all Catovians to rediscover their city from another perspective, through the eyes of artists from different and sometimes distant horizons!
Author’s recommendation
The creation of the street art route is accompanied by the online release of digital content (audioguide, photos, interviews) on the BEHIND THE WALL application, owned by the NGO Street Art for Mankind.
The app is available for free on download platforms (GooglePlay, AppleStore…) and from the NGO's website: https://streetartmankind.org/
Derived from the technical difficulty and the stamina requirements.
