Monday Murals -The Fire Station Museum in Doha II

I love murals and street art. If you like murals or have a mural you'd like to post, this meme is for you.  Just follow the Linky steps below.  Once you start looking you will find murals everywhere.  The "Monday Mural" meme goes live on Monday at 12,01AM, Perth,Western Australian time. Be sure to link back to this blog and visit your fellow posters. Looking forward to your mural finds this week.  Thanks Sami


Various other murals from the Fire Station Museum:

A 2017 mural by German artist Tomislav Topic of the artist duo "Quintessenz", commissioned by the German embassy in Doha and the Goethe Institut, Gulf Region, as part of Qatar-Germany 2017 Year of Culture.


Inspired by Qatar's nature, culture, and colors, Qatari artist Nada Khozestani's women wearing colorful abayas can be found on one of the Gallery walls.




       


Noura Al-Mansoori, the artist that painted the Shroomy Ladybug mural from my previous post also painted "The Cool Dove" at the Fire Station in 2020.

                       

                         
            
                     

The two murals above can be seen from this outdoor cafe where Karina and Jose  sat enjoying a coffee while I photographed the murals.


Other aspects and art in the courtyard of the Fire station museum.

  2. C'est vraiment très étonnant et très instructif toute cette variété de peintures murales. On ne s'imagine pas qu'il puisse y avoir une telle production d'images dans ce pays, avec autant d'images figuratives. merci beaucoup

  3. These are all amazing murals. I love the abstract nature of the first three. The one with the vessels pouring colorful paint is also very nice. And, that sculpture near the end is fascinating. Great post!

  10. They are all wonderful, but the water-lillies with the "people" sure are my favs, because.... maybe you know, we have them here in the Botanical Garden. They can carry kids up to 35 kg!
    And the dove is funny, too!
    They are all great!

    And cool stone sculptures; I noticed the one in the previous post, too!
