Acclaimed French artist JR is preparing a solo exhibit titled “GIANTS” at Lazinc’s new flagship gallery in Mayfair, London. The name of the presentation directly references the artist’s ongoing GIANTS project which made its debut during the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Collectively, the showcase will analyze JR’s processes in creating his signature large-scale sculptures.

“Visitors will be able to view the artist’s process from start to finish; from the architectural plans that were created to support his large-scale sculptures, to a look into the TED prize winner’s digital photography techniques,” stated Lazinc.

“GIANTS” will be open to the public this January 12 up until February 28. Visit Lazinc’s official website to learn more.
