OPÉRA GARNIER, PARIS
JR created a unique photo series featuring corps de ballet dancers from the Paris Opera on the roof of the Palais Garnier. This series originated from JR’s encounter with the dancers on his film set for Les Bosquets. It showcases variations of the eponymous ballet composed for the New York City Ballet, with previously unseen choreographic sequences captured on top of the Paris Opera house.
