An inspiration for those trying to create socially engaged art and make a difference in marginalized communities. - Smithsonian Magazine

The most comprehensive monograph on the enigmatic French artist - updated to include brand-new work

Filled with stunning photography, this extraordinary monograph charts a range of JR's collaborative projects executed across the globe.

Created in close collaboration with the artist, it features chapters on each of JR's major bodies of work - from Expo2Rue, using the street as his canvas to launch his career as an artist, to The Chronicles of Miami, which opened in November 2023. It also includes his collaborations with other artists and institutions such as the New York City Ballet, film director Agn?s Varda, and Time magazine.

A foreword by Hollywood legend George Lucas, a specially commissioned graphic novel by comic artist Joseph Remnant, an updated survey essay by Nato Thompson, and a short piece by Italian film director Alice Rohrwacher all come together to tell JR's fascinating story.

Good Quality
Color: White
This is absolutely beautiful. The lighting is ambient and not bright, with a warm glow (not as bright as the photos), and the charge lasts about 3 hours, give or take. The plaster mold is done very well so that it looks high end. It is also high-quality because I dropped it and it didn't break. For this reason, the price is right. This would be a great gift, but also a wonderful ornament for the yard or even as a welcome at the front door.

Looks nice, and works well but the light doesn't fit well.
Color: White
I have mixed feelings about this little angel light. I got it for my mom, and she really loves it, and it looks great on the edge of the garden by the walkway up to the house. It doesn't provide a lot of light, but what it does offer is just enough at night to help people navigate until they're close enough for our motion activated porch light to turn on. The light however just doesn't come installed in the figure and doesn't fit very well into the hole it's supposed to sit in. I used some thick double sided tape as a gasket to hold it in place and solved the problem, but it's worth noting anyway. As for overall quality, it's ok, but not great. The figure is made of resin (plastic), and is fairly thin and not very strong. It's also very light and can be knocked or blown over by wind very easily. The casting on the angel itself is ok, but the socket the light sets into was misshapen and I also had to clean it up to even get the light to fit into it. (There was some flashing at the bottom of the hole that prevented it from sitting all the way down) Battery life seems to be pretty good, and lasts through the night as long as it gets enough sun during the day, but on cloudy days it tends to only last a few hours at most. And the light sensor does work well, it comes on right at dusk. As for value I'm not sure I'd say it's a great deal for the current price, but if you can find it on sale might be worth getting. Of course on anything decorative value is subjective and depends largely on how much you like the look of it. As always if I encounter any other issues or think of anything else to add I'll update this review!

solar figurine
Color: White
I recently added these angel figurines to my garden, and they are absolutely lovely. The solar-powered feature lights them up at night, creating a soft, peaceful glow that highlights my patio and lawn beautifully. The statues are well-crafted and durable, holding up nicely in sun and rain, and the white finish looks elegant against my greenery. They also make a thoughtful gift for moms or garden lovers. Overall, these are charming, functional, and decorative outdoor angel statues that add a serene touch to any garden or balcony.

Beautifully made sturdy angel statue!
Color: White
This outdoor angel statue is so well done! The craftmanship on it is amazing! Easy to hook in light. I do note that the light is a little wobbly in the holder section, but it looks fantastic! Lights up nicely! The wings and the detail on the angel really are well done. This statue is beautiful! It is pretty sturdy too. Looks well inside, but definitely will be a nice touch to my garden! Seems to be weather resistant as well!
