Edition number might vary from what is shown in the images. The street artist and photographer JR started out his artist practice in the streets of Paris. Using the pseudonym JR, the artist is keeping his identity hidden from the public. JR’s practice lies at the intersection of photography, street art, film, and social practice. The artist is best known for his site-specific public interventions, which usually feature large-scale, black-and-white photographs overlaid on building façades, stadium seats, and a variety of other architectural and landscape features. His practice often comments on such issues as incarceration, immigrant rights, and poverty—yet JR infuses his work with joy and hope for change. He has exhibited in cities including New York, London, Paris, Tokyo, Berlin, and Seoul. JR’s work belongs in the collections of the Musée de l’Elysée, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the Brooklyn Museum, the Museum of Modern Art, and the Museum Frieder Burda. In addition to his public interventions, JR has produced a number of films, including a collaboration with the famed French director Agnès Varda.

The collage was visible from August until September 2020, between the buildings of Clichy-Montfermeil and the Eiffel Tower, whose shadow is outlined on the visual in anamorphosis. What is very characteristic of JR’s art is the impermanence nature of the project, which the only way that the installation is captured, is through the creation of this lithograph - commemorating its presence, as the sun dries the glue, and the wind and rain tears the fragile paper with every moment.
