Street Art #560 Robe&Fore (Los Keos), Montreal

avatar

Today, I propose you a "monograph" on a couple of artists (in the street as in life) Robe&Fore also called Los Keos. Having lived in Montreal for some time, many walls keep the trace of their passage. And despite the years, their works are still in good condition, without tags for the most part, just the passage of time and the Quebec winter.

Aujourd'hui, je vous propose une monographie sur un couple d'artistes (dans la rue comme dans la vie) Robe&Fore aussi appelé Los Keos. Ayant habités quelques temps à Montréal, plusieurs murs gardent la trace de leur passage. Et malgré les années, leurs œuvres sont encore en bon état, sans tags la plupart, juste le passage du temps et de l'hiver québécois.

In this post, you will find 3 walls made by this couple, the first one on Castelnau street in Montreal, near the Jean Talon market. / FR : Dans ce post, vous allez retrouver 3 murs réalisés par ce couple dont le premier sur la rue Castelnau à Montréal, tout près du marché Jean Talon.

The duo's work can be found all over Montreal. Robe&Fore doesn't seem to have a preferred neighborhood. A wall is a wall, no matter where it is.

Les œuvres du duo se trouvent un peu partout dans Montréal. Robe&Fore ne semble pas avoir de quartier de préférence. Un mur est un mur, quelque soit son endroit.

Sur la rue Castelnau

Los Keos is a street artist duo composed of Robe and Fore, a Canadian Chilean couple. They met more than 10 years ago in Buenos Aires during their studies. They often paint on wagons or subway trains but not only, several walls in Montreal keep track of their passage. I don't think they have been in Montreal for a few years already as most of the works are from 2017/2018. According to their Instagram, they must be in Europe where the rail network is more interesting 😀.

Los Keos est un duo d'artistes de rue composé de Robe et Fore, un couple canado-chilien. Ils se sont rencontrés il y a plus de 10 ans à Buenos Aires pendant leurs études. Ils peignent souvent sur des wagons ou des rames de métro mais pas seulement, plusieurs murs de Montréal gardent la trace de leur passage. Je pense qu'ils ne sont plus à Montréal depuis quelques années déjà car la plupart des oeuvres datent de 2017/2018. Selon leur Instagram, ils doivent se balader en Europe ou le réseau ferroviaire est plus intéressant 😀.

The format of their work is often the same, two letterings surrounding a character that looks like it came straight out of a cartoon. Since their artist's name has the same number of letters, it gives a symmetry and balance to the whole. Like this other example on Waverly Street in Montreal.

Le format de leur œuvre est souvent le même, deux lettrages entourant un personnage qui semble tout droit sorti d'un dessin animé. Comme leur nom d'artiste comporte le même nombre de lettres, cela donne une symétrie et un équilibre à l'ensemble. Comme sur cet autre exemple qui se trouve sur la rue Waverly à Montréal.

And finally, a wall made in 2021 by Fore the Canadian part of Los Keos which is located in an alley not far from the Legal Wall of Rouen. Even without Robe, we recognize the style.

Et pour finir, un mur réalisé en 2021 par Fore la partie canadienne de Los Keos qui se situe dans une ruelle pas très loin du Mur Légal de Rouen. Même sans Robe, on reconnait le style.
