JR: Can Art Change The World

$ 59.95

The essential monograph on JR's global, participatory art practice.  

Nato Thompson and Joseph Remnant

OVERVIEW
  • The first major monograph on the prolific career-to-date of JR and his practice of ‘Pervasive Art’
  • JR’s site-specific projects across the globe have a wide audience spanning urban and youth cultures, and art and activism
  • Made in close collaboration with JR, the book features previously unpublished behind-the-scenes documentation of his studios in Paris and New York, where he and his creative collaborators live and work
  • In today’s socio-political climate of globalisation, JR’s public interventions across the world are urgent acts that give the sense of voice and presence to both subject and viewer through the visual language of photography
  • Includes all bodies of his work, his collaborations with other artists and institutions such as the New York Ballet
