Solution

1st sentence: High rise walls stand as canvasses where art can be portrayed.
2nd sentence: ‘have’ is an auxiliary which requires a verb in the past tense
3rd sentence: ‘compliance’ of civic authority would make the project easier to do for the artists. It is clear that the artists did not need any monetary ‘grant’ for the purpose.
4th sentence: artworks are ‘installations’ as they are placed or installed somewhere. ‘Instalment’ means the part of a whole done or paid in one go.
5th sentence: a walk through the installations is being considered or conceived or ‘envisaged’.

BAABB is the correct option.
