JR Covers the Watarium

IMG_3802JR at the Watarium and in Japan

The street artist JR had a solo exhibition at the Watari Museum of Contemporary Art in 2013. He covered the outside of the Watarium in his famous large scale photographs of people affected by the disaster in Northern Japan. The photographs are still seen even today (above, taken July 2015).
