Product info

 Dive into the thought-provoking work of the Parisian photographer, street artist and activist JR in JR: Can Art Change the World? Created in close collaboration with JR himself, this is the first major, in-depth survey on the enigmatic and anonymous artist behind some of the world’s most provocative large-scale public photography projects. This stunning tome opens with a specially-commissioned graphic novel from comic artist Joseph Remnant, which follows JR’s journey from spray-painting buildings on the streets of Paris to creating massive, statement-making portraits around the globe in an effort to spark social change and awareness. Following this, you’ll find chapters on each of JR’s major bodies of work, including gigantic street portraits, gallery installations and collaborations with other artists and institutions. Also included is a fascinating essay from Creative Time’s exhibition curator Nato Thompson on the societal importance of JR’s oeuvre, as well as previously-unpublished shots that offer a behind-the-scenes look at his Paris and New York studios. A moving monograph on one of the most influential artists of our time, JR: Can Art Change the World? deserves a spot on any art-lover’s coffee table.
