Showcasing murals,  photographs, videos, films, dioramas, and archival materials, JR: Chronicles  is the first major exhibition in North America of works by the  French-born artist. Working at the intersections of photography, social  engagement, and street art, JR collaborates with communities by taking  individual portraits, reproducing them at a monumental scale, and wheat  pasting them\u2014sometimes illegally\u2014in nearby public spaces.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>This soaring multimedia installation traces JR\u2019s career from his  early documentation of graffiti artists as a teenager in Paris to his  large-scale architectural interventions in cities worldwide to his more  recent digitally collaged murals that create collective portraits of  diverse publics. The centerpiece of the exhibition is The Chronicles of New York City,  a new epic mural of more than one thousand New Yorkers that is  accompanied by audio recordings of each person\u2019s story. All of the  projects on view honor the voices of everyday people and demonstrate  JR\u2019s ongoing commitment to community, collaboration, and civic  discourse.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n<p><!--EndFragment--><\/p>\n\n\n<p>Whew, we finally got out of there and headed for the subway conveniently located right across the street.
