011: JR
It seems like a tall task to try and tell a wide-ranging and in-depth visual story of a city, especially one with such a diverse and intriguing counter-culture history like San Francisco, California. But that is exactly what world-renowned street artist, photographer, activist and documentary filmmaker, JR did over the course of a year in the City By the Bay. In his latest project, "The Chronicles of San Francisco," set to open as an interactive installation/mural at SFMOMA on May 23, 2019, JR uses all the great strengths of his craft: photography, filmmaking, storytelling and community engagement to create on his grandest and most in-depth projects to date.
Of course, we sat down with JR just before his awe-inspiring work at the Louvre in late March 2019, a project that saw the French-born artist celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Louvre's "Pyramid" with a grand 4-day street art project at the base of the museum. We are proud to have JR as our 11th episode of the Radio Juxtapoz Podcast.
Also in this episode, hosts Evan Pricco (editor, Juxtapoz Magzine) and Doug Gillen (founder of Fifth Wall TV) talk about all the latest action in the art world, including the JR at the Louvre project, as well as the incredible record-setting week of KAWS in Hong Kong. Enjoy the listen!
