Disek - J'irai graffer chez vous
2025-04-17 18:00 - 20:00 (Europe/Paris) | Le Grand Jeu, 15, passage de Ménilmontant, Paris, 75011, France
We’re excited to announce the official launch of J’irai graffer chez vous by Disek, published by Éditions Alternatives, and to invite you to celebrate this release with us.
A globetrotting graffiti artist, Disek has spent the past ten years traveling the world in search of walls to leave his mark on. This journey has been a transformative experience, changing both the way he paints and the way he travels. Today, he says, he no longer paints to “kill” the street, but to bring it to life.
The idea for this book came to him during an unexpected stop in Colombia, caused by a health issue: “I was looking at photos of my pieces and realized I had at least one interesting story behind each of them. I wanted to share those special moments I spent with people, many of whom I couldn’t even speak the language with.”
In addition to the book, you can also follow Disek as he paints, meets locals, and explores cities and landscapes on his YouTube channel, inspired by Antoine de Maximy’s show J’irai dormir chez vous.
📚 Launch – J’irai graffer chez vous by Disek🗓 Thursday, April 17 | 🕕 6–8 PM📍 Le Grand Jeu Bookstore

Saeio - Recueils
2025-04-12 17:00 - 19:00 | Le Grand Jeu, 15, passage de Ménilmontant, Paris, 75011, France
Ten years after their discreet release, poessie et running 1 (2014) and poessie et running 2 (2015) by SAEIO are finally making their return to bookstores!
Originally self-published in very limited runs, these two poetry collections quickly became elusive — and legendary for those lucky enough to come across them. Blending offbeat language, graphic experimentation, and rhythmic flow, SAEIO crafts a world that feels both raw and magical, where every poem echoes like a street incantation.
We’re excited to announce their reissue by All Man’s Land Paris, and to invite you to celebrate the launch with us.
📚 Launch – poessie et running 1 & 2 by SAEIO🗓 Saturday, April 12 | 🕕 5–7 PM📍 Le Grand Jeu Bookstore

Rencontres Urbaines de Nancy
2025-04-02 - 2025-04-12 | Nancy, France
Get ready for a bold new edition of RUN – the Rencontres Urbaines de Nancy – where street culture takes center stage! This immersive festival blends music, art, dance, sport, fashion, and street food into one electrifying experience.
From breakdance battles to graffiti exhibitions, BMX stunts to skate sessions, RUN breaks down the barriers between genres and celebrates everything hybrid, wild, and wonderfully unclassifiable. Is breakdance a sport or an art? Is graffiti made for the streets or museum walls? The answer: yes.
Highlights include “Aérosol, a History of Graffiti”, a major museum show tracing the spray can’s rise as a tool of rebellion and expression from the 60s to the mid-80s, and FREEZE, a one-off street sculpture project by Lor-K made entirely from urban waste.
There’s also a pro day on urban art curation (because yes, street culture can also wear a tie), and the return of the iconic Rap Contenders with their raw, no-mic street battles scouting tomorrow’s MCs.
Mark your calendars – RUN is where the street meets the spotlight.
