The Wrinkles of the City, Action in Shanghai

In 2010, JR brings The Wrinkles of the City to Shanghai. This project provides a unique opportunity for us to read all about the stories of these people’s lives, see all their portraits and above all, the pasting done by JR. For memory can stumble and fall, disappear any minute as the elderly leave us, JR shows us that its important not to forget what the elderly have to pass to the young ones.

Without judging, JR provides us a poetic, social and above all human way. As the artist puts it himself:” Change the way people see the world, is already a way to making things change…
