JR - Unframed Project in Vevey
- il y a 14 ans
Unframed est un projet urbain inédit créé pour la ville de Vevey, en coproduction entre le festival Images et le Musée de l’Elysée. C’est une première dans la carrière de JR: il s’est immergé dans les collections du Musée de l’Elysée. À travers une démarche de réinterprétation et de décontextualisation, il revisite certaines œuvres de Robert Capa, Gilles Caron, Helen Levitt et d’autres. En placardant sur les façades qui lui servent de cimaises, la ville se métamorphose en gigantesque musée à ciel ouvert.
