Paper & Glue is a feature-length documentary that follows acclaimed French artist JR around the globe as he builds some of his most monumental projects, challenging perspectives and uniting communities through his thought-provoking work.
The film follows JR from early illicit graffiti on Paris rooftops to the US-Mexico border, the favelas of Rio de Janeiro, and a current collaboration at a California supermax prison. Footage reveals how JR turns these communities inside out, using images of residents to create eye-catching and immersive art installations.
In Paper & Glue, JR uses his vision and style to illuminate the general public’s “out of sight, out of mind” approach to those who are suffering. JR uses his platform to represent the global voice of women and men unheard.
This film screening takes place at the Magic Lantern Cinemas, Ketchum at 7pm.
