Reading time: 1 minute
A massive 11,000-square feet Leonard Cohen mural was inaugurated in downtown Montreal this week to mark the one-year anniversary of the singer’s death.
Artists El Mac, Gene Pendon and the MU collective based their work off a photograph that was originally taken by Lorca Cohen in 2008.
Co-founder of MU, Elizabeth-Ann Doyle, said: “Leonard Cohen represents Montreal. He is the ultimate Montrealer! He rallies us, he resembles us, in our quest for freedom, in our search of humanity, in our humour. Leonard Cohen is all of us! It’s Montreal!”
Leonard Cohen’s manager Robert Kory and Lorca Cohen were present at the unveiling of this larger-than-life work of art.
