“JR converts his pictures into posters and transforms our streets into universal open-air galleries. After his first guerrilla exhibition on the walls of Montfermeils ghettois in 2004. JR settled down right in the heart of the district armed with 28 mm lens. With collaborating with Ladj Ly, he shot full frame portraits of young people from this neighborhood and the nearby district of The Forestière in Clichy-sous-Bois, epicenter of the riots events of fall 2005. The first portraits were illegally pasted on the east walls of Paris, a district that was once run-down with a certain “in your face” rudeness, they provoke passers-by and question the social and media representation of a generation that people only want to see outside the doors of Paris or on the news”.
