THE SKATEROOM X JR
2019-04-01The Belgian label has joined with French street artist JR for a special set of skateboard decks to support Brazilian favelas. The featured decks incorporate the moment in 2016, when JR was invited to the Musée du Louvre. For the event, the artist announced he would make the museum’s famous glass Pyramid disappear. To achieve the feat, JR completely covered the structure with historical photographs pre-dating its construction. What resulted was a surprising anamorphosis: the museum’s forgotten former entrance bursting forth into the present and reclaiming its former glory.
