Description

Ladj Ly and JR are pleased to present this new lithograph, 20 years later.

Since 2004, JR has been involved in the Bosquets urban project in Montfermeil, pasting large portraits of residents on the walls of the neighborhood. One of his first photographs, titled “Braquage, Ladj Ly seen by JR,” shows Ladj Ly with a camera in hand. This image took on symbolic significance during the 2005 riots, sparked by the deaths of Zyed Benna and Bouna Traoré.

Over the years, JR and Ladj Ly have developed numerous projects blending art, memory, and activism: performances, short films, ballets, monumental murals... In 2013, before the demolition of iconic buildings, JR returned to secretly paste his portraits one last time. In 2016, he photographed over 700 residents to create a powerful, socially engaged mural, celebrated at the Palais de Tokyo in 2017 and inaugurated by the President of the Republic. Finally, in 2020, during the demolition of B5 — the last building of the original complex — he pasted one final image, revealed as the building came down.

This edition continues the artistic and human adventure that began twenty years ago.
