SUMMARY:Railway Systems: Aesthetics and Institutions
DESCRIPTION:Trains and railway systems have long shaped our landscapes\, functioning not only as industrial infrastructures but also as living canvases for autonomous practices such as graffiti writing. Yet\, despite their central role in urban imaginaries\, they remain marginal within the institutional discourse on “street” and “urban” art. \nThis evening\, Jens Besser\, Nicolas Ciarlone\, and THWRB3AT will open a discussion on how these infrastructures can be reimagined as legitimate sites for artistic and cultural engagement. Their recent publications provide the starting point: TOPOLOGISMS (THWRB3AT\, 2025)\, which explores the topological aesthetics of European railway infrastructures through geospatial documentation; PADiGLiONE iN MOViMENTO (Besser\, 2025)\, presenting the first Venice Biennale pavilion dedicated to illegal train painting; and Lines & Numbers (ASRT editions\, 2023)\, edited by Prof. Harry Breda-Beck\, which examines the reduced color schemes and unique aesthetics of freight trains in Europe. \n📚 Railway Systems: Aesthetics and Institutions – Talk & Book Presentation🗓 Friday\, November 7\, 2025 | 🕕 From 6 PM📍 Le Grand Jeu Bookstore

SUMMARY:Rockocó Número Ocho — The missing chapter of Madrid’s hip-hop history
DESCRIPTION:Before social media and smartphones\, Spanish youth invented their own ways of being seen. Among them\, photographer Miguel Trillo became a witness and chronicler — from the punks of the late Franco era to the first generation of Spanish rappers. His work\, suspended between art\, reportage\, and visual sociology\, captured the birth of new identities through style\, music\, and attitude. \nAt the heart of Trillo’s visual universe lies Rockocó\, a self-published fanzine series from the 1980s that became a symbol of the movida madrileña. This newly unearthed issue\, Rockocó Número Ocho: Especial Hip-Hop Madrid 1986–1991\, finally completes the series. Originally shot for a fanzine that was never printed\, it now comes to life as a limited-edition publication revealing the pioneers of Madrid’s hip-hop scene — dancers\, DJs\, graffiti writers\, and MCs — portrayed with Trillo’s unmistakable empathy and precision. \nProduced by Le Grand Jeu in collaboration with ZarbiBooks\, this special edition was conceived expressly for Paris Photo 2025\, reviving the raw energy of a movement in the making and restoring a missing chapter in the visual history of European hip-hop. \nTo celebrate its release\, Le Grand Jeu will host a presentation of the book in the presence of Miguel Trillo\, together with the editors. A table will also be available to all independent authors and publishers visiting Paris for Paris Photo\, including Angelo Leonardo (Le Monde ou Rien\, Altana)\, Gaia Mattiello (The Rabbit Hole) and Guido Gazzilli (Home is Home\, Kehrer Verlag)\, offering a chance to showcase their latest productions in an informal\, collective spirit. \n📖 Miguel Trillo — Rockocó Número Ocho: Especial Hip-Hop Madrid 1986–1991🗓 Friday\, November 14 | 🕓 from 6:00 pm📍 Le Grand Jeu\, 15 Passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11e

SUMMARY:Mint&Serf — Between Language and Art
DESCRIPTION:From the subways of New York to the studio walls\, Mint&Serf — also known as The MIRF — have spent more than twenty-five years exploring the tension between chaos and creation. Their work\, grounded in graffiti and expressive mark-making\, blurs the lines between art and vandalism\, public and private\, rebellion and reflection. \nBetween Language + Art is their most ambitious project to date: a 468-page bilingual monograph (English/Japanese) tracing their journey from the gritty streets of late-1990s Brooklyn to the global art scene. Through photographs\, texts\, and collaborations\, the book reveals the raw energy of a duo that has turned the aesthetics of disruption into a language of its own. \nFeaturing contributions by Megan Garwood\, Osvaldo Chance Jimenez\, Dumar Novy\, Miguel Gomez\, Sacha Jenkins SHR\, Jonathan Krohn\, and a foreword by Richie Shazam\, the publication is both an archive and a manifesto — a visual essay on friendship\, resistance\, and creative freedom. \n📖 Mint&Serf — Between Language and Art🗓 Thursday\, November 20 | 🕓 from 6:00 pm📍 Le Grand Jeu\, 15 Passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11e

SUMMARY:Pra gringos é mais caro — A love letter to Rio
DESCRIPTION:Between distance and belonging\, Arnaud Dambry’s debut photo book Pra gringos é mais caro offers a personal and intimate portrait of Rio de Janeiro\, born from a long\, immersive stay. More than a travel diary\, it is a story of connection — of a city that takes hold of you\, of fleeting encounters that leave lasting marks\, and of moments that feel like home even when you’re far away. \nShot over the course of a summer\, Dambry’s photographs capture both the tenderness and intensity of Rio: its rhythms\, its people\, its beauty and contradictions. The book is rooted in gratitude and empathy\, guided by a deep affection for a city that continues to call the author back. Designed by Kévin Boccanera and self-published in a limited run of 150 copies\, it stands as an ode to travel\, friendship\, and the human capacity for connection. \nTo celebrate its release\, Le Grand Jeu will host an exhibition and signing with Arnaud Dambry. \n📖 Arnaud Dambry — Pra gringos é mais caro🗓 Friday\, November 21 | 🕓 from 6:00 pm📍 Le Grand Jeu\, 15 Passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11e
