Street art rue Dénoyez
A cobbled Belleville lane, rue Dénoyez has been one of the most active street-art laboratories in Paris since the 2000s. Walls, doors, pavements and bins are constantly repainted: a mural rarely lasts more than a few weeks before being covered.
Anonymous stencils sit alongside pieces by well-known artists, in a colourful disorder far removed from the city-commissioned official walls. The area remains lively and working class, with studios, bars and community gardens. Tip: come back a few months later and the scene will have changed completely; late-afternoon light is best for photographing the street without harsh shadows.
