JR's Inside Out Project at Balboaplein
Visitors are invited to take part in a spectacular photo project
by undercover artist JR at
Monday 23 September at Balboaplein Amsterdam West. This will be the
first time in Europe visitors will be able to have their portrait
taken in the new mobile photo studio.
Life-size portraits
After winning the TED prize in 2011, JR initiated Inside Out,
fulfilling his wish to create the world's biggest participatory art
project. Inside Out is a worldwide platform that allows
people to share their story and turn their personal identity into a
public work of art. Over 150,000 people from over 100 countries
worldwide have already become part of Inside Out. Now it
is the Balboaplein visitor's turn.
Have your Inside Out portrait taken
Visitors are invited between 11:00 and 19:00 at Balboaplein to have
their portrait taken in this photo booth truck. Photographs will be
instantly printed on a large poster-scale format and become part of
the exhibition. As a result, visitors become part of an
ever-growing artwork, not just by having their image added to the
installation but by physically putting up their own portrait in the
exhibition.
After Balboaplein the photo booth truck will go to Unseen Photo Fair
2013 at Westergasfabriek Amsterdam.
Thu 26th September 12.00 - 22.00
