New York City makes a particularly good canvas. In JR: New York, the celebrated French artist brings his monumental photographic installations, street art and community-driven projects into focus, revealing how he has transformed the city's walls, streets and public spaces since 2006.

From his haunting portraits at Ellis Island to ambitious collaborations with New Yorkers, this beautifully illustrated book explores an artist who believes art belongs to everyone, preferably somewhere impossible to ignore.
