Tehachapi

Les Etats-Unis représentent 4,2% de la population mondiale et 20% des détenus dans le monde. En octobre 2019, l'artiste JR obtient l'autorisation sans précédent d'intervenir dans l’une des prisons de haute sécurité les plus violentes de Californie : Tehachapi. Certains détenus y purgent des peines à perpétuité pour des crimes commis alors qu’ils n’étaient que mineurs. À travers son projet de fresque, JR rassemble les portraits et les histoires de ces hommes, offrant un regard différent sur le milieu carcéral et apportant un message d'espoir et de rédemption possible.

Agnès Varda et JR ont des points communs : passion et questionnement sur les images en général et plus précisément sur les lieux et les dispositifs pour les montrer, les partager, les exposer. Agnès a choisi le cinéma. JR a choisi de créer des galeries de photographies en plein air. Quand Agnès et JR se sont rencontrés en 2015, ils ont aussitôt eu envie de travailler ensemble, tourner un film en France, loin des villes, en voyage avec le camion photographique (et magique) de JR. Hasard des rencontres ou projets préparés, ils sont allés vers les autres, les ont écoutés, photographiés et parfois affichés. Le film raconte aussi l’histoire de leur amitié qui a grandi au cours du tournage, entre surprises et taquineries, en se riant de leurs différences.

#JR - L'art sans frontières
6.3
Le photographe JR est une star mondiale de l’art urbain. Découvert après les émeutes en banlieue parisienne de 2005 pour ses portraits de jeunes des cités, il a depuis investi de ses collages le Louvre, le Centre Pompidou, le Panthéon, l’Assemblée nationale… De New York à Shanghai, du mur israélo-palestinien à la frontière américano-mexicaine, il a collé ou installé ses photos géantes dans des dizaines de pays et associé à ses projets des centaines de milliers d’inconnus. Avec l’active collaboration de l’artiste, le documentaire #JR retrace l’aventure extraordinaire de cet activiste de l’art, dont les interventions spectaculaires sont autant de manifestes humanistes, pacifistes ou mémoriels, relayés par sa très forte implication sur les réseaux sociaux. Pour JR, l’art peut contribuer à changer le monde.
