JR, a globally renowned artist, transforms public spaces into universal galleries through large-scale participatory projects, cinematic collaborations, and striking installations, with this book highlighting his impactful work in New York City. JR uses the street as a canvas for his monumental photographic collages. His participatory projects (28 Millimeters, Face 2 Face, ...) involve local communities. He launched Inside Out, a worldwide project inviting everyone to express themselves through images. He also explores cinema (Visages, Villages with Agnès Varda, awarded in Cannes) and creates spectacular installations (Louvre, Rio Olympics). His committed art, somewhere between poetry and activism, transforms public space into a universal gallery.
