CSL St-Laurent Opens Seaway with Unveiling of Spectacular Mural Commemorating Canada 150 and Montreal 375
Mar 20, 2017
The St. Lawrence Seaway Management Corporation marked the opening of its 59th navigation season today with a special tribute to marine shipping’s substantial contribution to Canada’s economic development and quality of life. The CSL St-Laurent, the first ship to transit the St. Lambert lock in 2017, featured a monumental work of art work commissioned by CSL as a tribute to Canada’s 150th anniversary and the 375th of the City of Montreal.
The mural entitled The Sea Keeper is an original work of art conceived by Montreal urban artist Bryan Beyung and created by Beyung with artists FONKi, Ankh One and Benny Wilding of the Ashop art collective. The mural depicts a Canada goose in flight, a common sight along the St. Lawrence River, and represents the vessel sailing in harmony with the environment. Painting an original work of art of this magnitude on a cargo vessel is a first for these artists, and is the first of its kind to be displayed on a Canadian commercial bulker.

MONTREAL, Nov. 27, 2017 /CNW Telbec/ - The CSL Group (CSL) has been honoured with a prestigious International Corporate Art Award for its engagement with urban artists in the creation of The Seakeeper, a magnificent fresco painted on the Trillium Class bulk carrier CSL St-Laurent to celebrate Canada's 150th and Montreal's 375th anniversaries.

They were developed by pptArt in collaboration with the LUISS Business School and with the support of the Italian Ministry of Culture to identify, recognize and promote excellence in corporate art patronage and collaboration at an international level.
