CULTURAL IMPORTANCE
JR AND THE PASTING PHOTOGRAPHS
JR, or Jean René, is a renowned French contemporary artist and photographer, is celebrated for his large-scale public art projects, notably his innovative use of pasting photographic images in public spaces.
This lithograph immortalizes JR's remarkable ephemeral installation at the Louvre Pyramid in Paris, where he employed an anamorphic technique with 400 volunteers to create a striking display of 2000 10-meter paper stripes, revealing the hidden structure beneath the pyramid. The lithograph stands as a lasting tribute to this fleeting installation, capturing the essence of the sun-dried glue and delicate navigation through the fragile paper.
