Between history and art
The appointment is given at 2 pm in front of the Poissonnerie Gallery located in street Rue des Phocéens. This gallery known for its Street Art pieces was created in the Panier district, 8 years ago by Loïc Perrel- a respected artist and better known as «Poasson». His gallery aims to train people in Street Art and his works are sold with 10% of the profits donated to hospitals in Marseille. In addition, Loïc participates in many social actions in the neighborhood.
Some works attract my attention, especially the one that pays tribute to Amy Winehouse! After admiring these works, we set off to discoverthe streets of the Panierdistrict. We marvel at a huge fresco of sheperds in the street” Rue de Lorette”, and observe the emblematic piece of two men kissing.
We then stop in front of a famous work evoking theMarseille aperitif, before joining the Vieille Charité, where its history is told. The journey leads us to a place where Marseille culture is at the center of attention. On one side, the “Bar des 13 coins”and its pleasant terrace faces the” Maison de la Boule”, known for its triplets and its ultramarine blue façade. Going up “Rue du Refuge”, we come across a striking fresco of an octopus that seems to be clinging to the wall with its huge tentacles, reminding us that Marseille is above all a Meditarranean city on the water’s edge.
