JR’s artwork leaves a lasting impression- on the walls, the cities and the people it covers. While he started out as a graffiti artist, his work has morphed into something bigger -both literally and figuratively. Enlarging stark and striking imagery into epic proportions, he posts freely around the world.

JR’s close-ups tug at our conscience, drawing our attention through powerful installations. The photography is stunning and the subjects are impossible to ignore. And now, after years of posting on walls around the world, his photography can be viewed indoors at Paris’ Perrotin Gallery.

In addition to new works, the show includes imagery that’s been plastered on city walls worldwide—from Rio de Janeiro, Nairobi, Shanghai, and Los Angeles, among others. The artist has also transformed the gallery itself, covering the entrance with a two-story strained and staring eyeball, framed by wiry eyebrows and leathery skin. If you’re local, come by for a wonderful opportunity to see JR’s work up close. Click here for more info.
