Portraits in Pantheon by JR

Artist JR started his career illegally posting enormous photographic imagery in the streets of Paris. The French capital eventually approved of JR’s installations and started supporting his artwork in the outdoors of Parisian housing projects from 2004 to 2006.In JR’s latest endeavour, the Pantheon opened this month with his “Au Panthéon!” project. It showcases thousands of portraits taken in March of this year from a photo-booth truck, which made its way to multiple nations. The portraits are arranged in mosaics on ornate ceilings, floors, and exterior of the famous monument. via
