Postcard from the streets of Fitzroy

In the main roads, on the side streets, in the alleys: works of art with graffiti, posters, found objects are everywhere. It makes a simple walk to get a coffee like a stroll through a living museum. Soon, you start to recognize artists and taglines and color schemes: not unlike being able to point out a Picasso or a Renoir as soon as you walk in a gallery.
