DDS. JR (French, b.1983) Adama, Montfermeil, Portrait d`une generation, 2006, Photographic wheat paste on found wood, signed, titled and dated in red ink verso, 700 x 650 mm (27 1/2 x 25 1/2 in) Provenance: Alice Gallery, Brussels, Accompanied by a letter from Alice Gallery pertaining to its authenticity. JR`s beautifully candid photograph Adama Montfermeil stems from his 2006 project Portrait d`une Generation as part of his 28 millimeters series. Initially making the cover of the New York Times, Portrait d`une Generation featured poster-sized photographs of young people from Paris` suburban ghetto Monfermeil through a 28 mm lens. Following the success of the project, the anonymous photographer-activist chose to illegally re-exhibit the photographs throughout the streets of Paris as a way to raise awareness of the people who inhabit the suburbs and transform the streets into an open-air gallery. Adama is an example of this project and shows in contrast to the public image of young people, who are often depicted as angry, alienated and primed for social disorder. Here he is pictured as pulling a funny face through a fish-eye lens, inevitably lending an approachable, comic aspect and changing how we perceive this young man.
