Pics From JR's Inside Out Exhibit (Pt. 2/3) - The Prints
This is one of our favorite pictorial posts. Here are some great shots we snapped of people receiving their prints from JR's Inside Out.
This is a really cool project, and the crowd that showed up was very diverse. All different types of people showed up who were all different ages and from all different walks of life. Older folks, and children. Housewives and hipsters. It was a very eclectic group, and the only common theme was JR's wish to 'turn the world inside out'.
The crowd turn-out itself was much bigger than anticipated. When we arrived around lunchtime on Friday, there were 40-50 people in line for the photobooth, and the gallery told us that they were already running low on ink and paper and didn't know if they would have enough to finish the day. It just goes to show how powerful JR's message is, and that people are really responding to it.
And the prints were really spectacular. The photo booth was set up with JR's lenses and filters, and it was really cool to see the way it captured the pics of the people.
The photobooth was a cool bonus for people in LA, but anyone can participate with JR's project and upload a photo on his website HERE
