SUMMARY:Le Premier Métro — Graffiti\, Departure & the Search Elsewhere
DESCRIPTION:H. is a graffiti writer. For years\, his name — ANY1 — has marked the walls of Paris. But Parisian life starts to wear thin\, and he sets off to see whether the grass is greener elsewhere: a one-way ticket to Australia\, in search of new walls and new air. \nLe Premier Métro is a novel anchored in the years 2015–2020\, threading real names from the Parisian and Australian graffiti scenes through H.’s journey — a story of restlessness\, departure\, and the search for paint and meaning beyond the city that made him. \nLe Grand Jeu invites you to the launch of Le Premier Métro\, in the presence of author Olivier Cachetout. An evening to meet the writer\, hear the story behind H. and ANY1\, and pick up a signed copy. \n📖 Le Premier Métro — Book Launch & Signing with Olivier Cachetout\n🗓 Thursday\, July 23rd | 🕓 from 6PM\n📍 Le Grand Jeu\, 15 passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11

SUMMARY:Before It Dries While It Lasts — Writing\, Water & Disappearance
DESCRIPTION:Before It Dries While It Lasts is an experiment in writing as a temporary act — stripped of its usual claim to permanence. Working with water\, Edoardo Baraggioli creates wall interventions that evaporate over time\, questioning mark-making\, duration and disappearance within the field of graffiti. \nFor this evening at Le Grand Jeu\, Edoardo will present his fanzine and screen documentation of his practice\, followed by a participatory workshop: visitors are invited to intervene directly on the walls around the bookshop using water vaporizers — a collective experience that is at once performative and photographic. Secure your spot here! \n Before It Dries While It Lasts — Zine Launch\, Signing and Vaporizers Workshop with Edoardo Baraggioli Thursday\, July 16th |  from 6PM Le Grand Jeu\, 15 passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11

SUMMARY:TEK — Techno\, Trance & Dance Music's Hidden History
DESCRIPTION:TEK — Une Histoire de la Techno is a traverse through the history of electronic dance music\, spanning from the early experiments of the Groupe de Recherche de Musique Concrète in the 1950s through psytrance\, jungle and the free party movement. Electronic music is everywhere now — in adverts\, concert halls\, supermarkets\, woven into rock\, rap\, pop\, and even jazz and swing. TEK traces how we got here\, mapping the evolution and reach of a culture shaped by technology\, repetition and the dance floor. \nThis Wednesday\, we’re celebrating the launch of a newly revised and expanded edition of the TEK fanzine. A long-running collaboration with Compagnie les Comploteurs (since 2020)\, TEK combines audio documentary\, fanzine and DJ-Conférence into a single compact\, accessible format. The new edition includes a previously unpublished chapter on the history of jungle and drum’n’bass\, an expanded bibliography and curated playlists for each musical genre explored. At 7:30 PM\, the DJ-Conférence — a live reworking of the text in sound and rhythm — will unfold for approximately thirty minutes. \n📖 TEK — Une Histoire de la Techno — Fanzine Launch with DJ-Conférence\n🗓 Wednesday\, July 15th | 🕓 from 7:30 PM\n📍 Le Grand Jeu\, 15 passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11

SUMMARY:Off the Rails — Graffiti\, Trains & the Underground City
DESCRIPTION:After a fifteen-year-old boy discovers a graffiti blackbook\, his eyes are opened to an unseen city. As his interest in rugby league fades\, he finds himself drawn to spray cans\, a camera\, and the abandoned buildings\, rooftops and active train tunnels of Sydney. In its forgotten spaces\, he encounters a community who see the city as he does — not just as a place to live\, but as a place of immense beauty\, above and below. \nOff the Rails is the debut novel by Jet Williams — Sydney-based writer\, artist and urban explorer. For this evening at Le Grand Jeu\, Jet will present the book and open a conversation about Australian graffiti culture\, freight train writing\, and the underground landscapes that shaped it. The evening will also include a screening of an unreleased documentary on Sydney’s underground scene\, directed by filmmaker and creative partner Max Dona. \nRegistration is open — reserve your spot here. \n📖 Off the Rails — Book Talk & Signing with Jet Williams\n🗓 Thursday\, July 4th | 🕓 from 3PM\n📍 Le Grand Jeu\, 15 passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11

SUMMARY:Thierry Maignan - Negroïde City
DESCRIPTION:In Paris\, some presences are constant yet rarely centered — visible in everyday life\, but still pushed to the margins of dominant narratives. Negroïde City begins from this tension. Through a series of black-and-white photographs\, Thierry Maignan traces a lived city shaped by bodies\, gestures\, and movements that quietly redefine its landscape. \nBoth intimate and political\, the book develops a direct photographic language stripped of anecdote and spectacle. Faces\, postures\, and fragments of urban life emerge with clarity\, forming a visual narrative that questions visibility\, memory\, and postcolonial legacy. At its core\, Negroïde City is a gesture of reappropriation — of the gaze\, of representation\, and of language itself. \nLe Grand Jeu invites you to the launch of Negroïde City in the presence of Thierry Maignan. An evening to encounter the work beyond the page\, engage with the artist’s perspective\, and reflect on how images can shift what a city reveals — and what it chooses to conceal. \n📖 Negroïde City — Book Launch & Signing with Thierry Maignan🗓 Friday\, July 3rd | 🕓 from 6PM📍 Le Grand Jeu\, 15 passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11

SUMMARY:Tilt – Never Ending Story: Throw-ups\, Traces & Erasure
DESCRIPTION:During lockdown\, Tilt — the Toulouse graffiti artist known worldwide for his work — set himself one rule: a throw-up a day. More than 700 appeared across his city\, only to vanish soon after under layers of buff paint. Never Ending Story grew out of that obsessive\, ephemeral practice — a deep dive into the aesthetics of appearance and disappearance\, documenting two decades of gestures\, traces\, and erasures. \nMore than a photo book\, Never Ending Story brings together Tilt’s hands-on experience\, the analyses of researchers David Pontille and Evelyne Toussaint\, and the perspective of a pioneer like Henry Chalfant — co-author of Subway Art\, who describes Tilt’s throwies as plump\, jolly beings that shake\, rattle and roll\, even on a concrete wall. With work and words from international legends — Moses\, Taps\, Nop2\, Seen\, Pemex\, OsGemeos\, Remio\, Fish\, Puls\, Padre… — it stands as both a tribute to one of graffiti’s most essential practices and a reflection on repetition\, memory\, and the persistence of the trace. \nDesigned by Martin Clamens and printed offset by Escourbiac\, the book runs to 472 pages with exposed-stitch binding — an object as much as a book. \nLe Grand Jeu invites you to the launch of Never Ending Story in the presence of Tilt. An evening to meet the artist\, leaf through the book\, and talk throw-ups\, erasure\, and the never-ending cycle of the wall. \n📖 Never Ending Story — Book Launch & Signing with Tilt\n🗓 Friday\, June 26th | 🕓 from 6PM\n📍 Le Grand Jeu\, 15 passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11

SUMMARY:Cut\, Drawn\, Printed — Flask × catcentcat
DESCRIPTION:Le Grand Jeu hosts the launch of a collaboration between two Parisian practices that meet on cloth: the drawing of writer Flask — shaped by the most radical years of graffiti\, from the metros to the tunnels — and the eye and press of catcentcat\, analog photographer seen in the docuseries With One Eye Open and printer of his own merch in Paris. Together they drop a series of long- and short-sleeve tees\, pulled by hand in catcentcat’s workshop. \nFor the occasion\, Flask exhibits a series of drawings made over recent months — including the preparatory drawing for the tee\, following the gesture from the page to the printed garment. \n👕 Flask × catcentcat — Tee Drop & Drawings\n🗓 Thursday\, June 25 | 🕕 From 7PM\n📍 Le Grand Jeu\, 15 passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11

SUMMARY:When Letters Meet – Skript Letter Jam #4
DESCRIPTION:In a moment when graphic cultures increasingly overlap without fully meeting\, Skript Letter Jam #4 explores what happens when the culture of the letter becomes a shared space rather than a separate practice. Typography\, calligraphy\, graffiti and letter painting are brought together not as a comparison\, but as a live encounter between gestures\, rhythms and forms. \nLed by artist and typographic practitioner Frank Wuko\, the project focuses on the act of drawing the letter as a collective language. Instead of presenting finished works\, it highlights process\, improvisation and the dialogue that emerges when different writing practices intersect. \nThe Librairie Le Grand Jeu hosts a live jam session bringing together typographers\, calligraphers\, graffiti writers and letter painters. Working on a shared large-format surface with water\, participants create traces that appear\, overlap and gradually disappear\, turning the space into a constantly evolving field of experimentation. \n📖 Skript Letter Jam #4 — Talk & live letter jam (typography\, calligraphy\, graffiti\, lettering)\n🗓 Saturday\, June 20 |🕓 From 3PM📍 Le Grand Jeu\, 15 passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11

SUMMARY:The City in Motion: Paris Ride Out
DESCRIPTION:Beyond its monuments and boulevards\, Paris is also a city of riders\, gathering spots and improvised routes. TARSTREETSPORTS: Paris Ride Out captures one of those moments when movement becomes a way of inhabiting the city. Set in a hidden Paris location\, the zine documents an evening where riders\, DJs and spectators came together\, transforming an ordinary space into a temporary landscape of motion\, sound and connection. \nProduced by TARSTREETSPORTS in collaboration with Bike City Kings and DJ RAF\, the project offers a documentary record of contemporary street culture. Through the black-and-white photographs of Ellis Dawg\, bodies\, bicycles and music unfold in real time\, revealing a scene built on participation rather than performance. \nLe Grand Jeu welcomes TARSTREETSPORTS for a presentation and signing session around Paris Ride Out. An opportunity to discover the publication\, explore the photographs\, and discuss the communities\, movements and encounters that inspired it. \n📖 TARSTREETSPORTS: Paris Ride Out — Presentation & Signing Session\n🗓 Friday\, June 19| 🕓 From 5h30PM\n📍Le Grand Jeu\, 15 passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11

SUMMARY:When T-Shirts Become Archives
DESCRIPTION:Some archives are not built at once\, but slowly assembled through years of looking\, collecting\, and remembering. Before culture became fully digitised\, memory often lived in magazines\, photographs\, mixtapes and personal objects — fragments that carried entire worlds within them. \nJournalist\, editor and curator Eglée de Bure opens her personal archive in Roots Picnic Music Festival\, Philadelphia — June 4\, 2016. The Day After Muhammad Ali’s Passing\, a new zine built around photographs taken at the Roots Picnic Festival in Philadelphia in 2016. Focused on the vintage T-shirts worn by festival-goers — from rap history to sports icons and cinema references — the work traces how cultural symbols circulate and reshape collective memory across generations. \nFor this launch at Le Grand Jeu\, Eglée de Bure presents the first chapter of an ongoing archival project\, moving between photography\, memory and cultural storytelling. \n📖 Zine Launch & Signing with Eglée de Bure\n🗓 Thursday\, June 18  | 🕓 From 6 PM\n📍 Le Grand Jeu\, 15 passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11

SUMMARY:Through the Lens of Hip-Hop: Maï Lucas Signing Session
DESCRIPTION:Some photographic archives do more than document a scene—they enter it while it is still being formed. All Eyes On Me by Maï Lucas traces New York between 1990 and 2010\, capturing a moment when hip-hop culture was still local\, embodied\, and self-defined. From Harlem to the Bronx\, her images follow a generation reshaping identity\, beauty\, and pride outside of commercial codes. \nWorking with intimacy and proximity\, Maï Lucas builds a visual testimony of a culture in transition—before its global expansion. All Eyes On Me becomes an archive of dignity\, creativity\, and everyday expression\, while the reprint of Hip-Hop Diary of a Fly Girl 1986–1996 revisits the early Paris hip-hop and graffiti scene through a raw\, first-hand visual record. \nThe Librairie Le Grand Jeu hosts a signing session with Maï Lucas\, bringing together both books in a direct encounter with the public. A moment of exchange around images\, stories\, and archives\, where New York and Paris connect through the lived history of hip-hop culture. \n📖 Maï Lucas — Signing Session: All Eyes On Me & Reprint\n🗓 Saturday\, June 13 | 🕓 From 4 PM\n📍 Le Grand Jeu\, 15 passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11

SUMMARY:Yuki + Moresk — On Living Systems
DESCRIPTION:Some projects begin as personal attempts to step outside existing systems\, others as ways of rethinking them from within. This evening brings together two independent practices that question how we live\, organise time\, and define autonomy. \nL’antimanuel : La Cafardise stems from a year spent exploring life outside monetary structures. Through analogue photography and lived experience\, it reflects on basic needs — eating\, sleeping\, learning\, socialising — as starting points for rethinking independence and collective organisation. Neither manifesto nor guide\, it opens a space between critical thought and direct experience. \nMoresk presents Marcus & Riton 1. Le cercle des tripoteurs\, the first chapter of an ongoing fanzine series developed through drawing\, rewriting and repetition. The project works as a fragmented\, evolving narrative where each issue stands alone while contributing to a broader\, open structure shaped by experimentation. \nLe Grand Jeu invites you to an evening of presentation\, exhibition\, signing session and exchange\, bringing together two editorial approaches and two ways of working through lived experience. \n📖  YUKI + MORESK — Exhibition\, Fanzine Launch & Signing Session\n🗓 Thursday\, 21 May | 🕓 From 6PM\n📍 Le Grand Jeu\, 15 passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11

SUMMARY:Holeg Spies – Echos des Origines
DESCRIPTION:What if listening were humanity’s founding gesture? In Echos des Origines\, published by Signal Zéro\, composer and sound researcher Holeg Spies traces an unbroken line from the resonant caves of the Paleolithic to the bass-driven warehouses of 1990s rave culture. He proposes what he calls écophonisme — an understanding of sound as a living organism in dynamic relation with its environment. \nBetween sociology\, anthropology\, and musicology\, the book draws on three decades of immersive practice — Hopi rituals in Arizona\, industrial wastelands of early techno\, the studios of Abbey Road. Part manifesto\, part counter-history\, it reframes collective experience through sound rather than image. Published by Signal Zero Éditions\, with contributions from astrophysicist Roland Lehoucq and sound archaeologist Mylène Pardoen. \nLe Grand Jeu invites you to the launch of Echos des Origines in the presence of Holeg Spies. An evening to encounter a book that treats sound not as entertainment or noise\, but as the oldest technology for being together.

SUMMARY:CazinoLA — Grey Zones & Pursuit
DESCRIPTION:A story that begins with a disappearance\, a name\, and a trace that refuses to fade. CazinoLA — La vie brute dans des draps de soie unfolds like a pursuit across cities and memories\, where every detail becomes a clue and every image a fragment of a larger construction. \nWritten by Ørland Von Traumer and illustrated by Der Fortuna\, the book follows Liberty\, a figure navigating grey zones between control and chaos. Structured as an immersive object\, it combines text\, illustrations\, musical cues\, and character archives\, creating a layered experience that oscillates between noir fiction\, personal journal\, and visual narrative. \nLe Grand Jeu invites you to the launch of CazinoLA\, in the presence of its authors.

SUMMARY:ML7 — Underground Lisbon
DESCRIPTION:Some scenes leave few traces\, not because they were absent\, but because they were never meant to be preserved. Beneath Lisbon\, along the metro lines\, a parallel history of graffiti unfolded over three decades\, written in motion\, erased\, and rewritten again. \nML7 brings together images from more than 60 contributors\, many of them previously unpublished\, alongside 30 first-hand testimonies in English and Portuguese. Moving between action and memory\, the book documents the evolution of a local scene while capturing its internal voices\, through a raw yet precise visual language. \nLe Grand Jeu invites you to the launch of ML7\, an evening centered around the book and the archive it gathers. A moment to discover a rarely documented chapter of European graffiti\, meet contributors\, and engage with a project that lets images and stories speak for themselves. \n📖 ML7 — Book Launch & Signing🗓 Thursday\, May 7\, 2026 | 🕓 From 6PM📍 Le Grand Jeu\, 15 passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11

SUMMARY:Girls — Portrait Series
DESCRIPTION:Over the past three years\, this project has taken shape through a series of encounters\, captured without staging and without a fixed framework. Girls brings together these moments as they were — direct\, simple\, and unaltered. In Girls\, Jeanne Narquin brings together these moments as they were — direct\, simple\, and unaltered. \nSelf-published in a limited edition of 100 copies\, this first photobook assembles portraits of women met along the way. Rather than constructing a narrative\, the book builds a sequence — an accumulation of presences that reflects a personal rhythm of looking and photographing. \nLe Grand Jeu invites you to the launch of Girls\, accompanied by a photographic exhibition. The evening will unfold around the book and a selection of images\, offering a moment to discover the project\, meet the author\, and engage with a work shaped by time\, proximity\, and repetition. \n📖 Girls — Book Launch\, Signing & Exhibition🗓 Friday\, April 24 | 🕓 From 6PM📍 Le Grand Jeu\, 15 passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11

SUMMARY:OX — Reworking the Image
DESCRIPTION:A key figure in French urban art\, OX has developed over four decades a distinctive practice rooted in the poetic reappropriation of advertising panels and public space.

This presentation highlights the influences and research that have shaped his practice\, and opens a space for discussion around the exhibition and its accompanying publication. \nJoin us at Le Grand Jeu for an evening dedicated to OX’s work and its context today. \n📖 OX — Book Launch\n🗓 Saturday\, April 18\, 2026 | 🕓 From 4PM\n📍 Le Grand Jeu\, 15 passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11

SUMMARY:Orléans by Names — City Traces
DESCRIPTION:Traces of a forgotten scene often survive where no one is looking — in shoeboxes\, private albums\, and analogue negatives left untouched for decades. This project returns to the graffiti culture of Orléans\, reconstructing fragments of a local movement shaped in the shadow of Paris\, yet rooted in its own territory. \nBuilt from personal archives and years of research\, the book brings together largely unpublished photographs from the late 1980s to the 2000s. It reflects a desire to preserve and transmit a history that might otherwise have disappeared — reconnecting with key figures of the time while also bringing forward lesser-known writers\, sometimes even unknown within the scene itself. \nLe Grand Jeu invites you to the launch and book signing of Orléans by Names — 25 ans de graffiti à Orléans. An evening dedicated to the release of the book and the archival work behind it\, offering a direct encounter with its author and the memory of a scene that remained\, until now\, largely unseen. \n📖 Orléans by Names — 25 ans de graffiti à Orléans | Book Launch & Signing🗓 Friday\, April 17\, 2026 | 🕓 From 6PM📍 Le Grand Jeu\, 15 passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11

SUMMARY:Chaze — Sndtrk1: A Graffiti Archive
DESCRIPTION:Some books begin with a discovery. Forgotten negatives\, found by chance\, bringing back fragments of a life once lived. For Chaze\, this moment marked the return of more than thirty years spent inside graffiti: an art form as marginal as it is deeply rooted in personal and collective memory. \nThrough Sndtrk1\, Chaze revisits his journey through images\, places\, and encounters. The book unfolds as both a visual archive and a testimony\, capturing the atmosphere of a scene that evolved over decades while remaining largely undocumented. More than a retrospective\, it offers an intimate look at graffiti as lived experience. \nLe Grand Jeu invites you to celebrate the launch of this book in the presence of Chaze. Join us for a signing and discover this limited edition\, exploring the pages and stories behind a lifetime dedicated to graffiti. \n📖 Sndtrk1 — Book Launch & Signing\n🗓 Thursday\, April 2\, 2026 | 🕓 From 6PM\n📍 Le Grand Jeu\, 15 passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11

SUMMARY:Photographie\, Jeu Vidéo\, Paysage: Mapping Horizons
DESCRIPTION:In an era where virtual worlds increasingly shape our visual culture\, the boundary between reality and simulation becomes fragile. With Photographie\, Jeu Vidéo\, Paysage\, Pascal Greco explores landscapes generated within video games\, approaching them with the rigor of a traditional photographer. \nPublished by IDPURE éditions & Chambre Noire\, the book gathers a selection of in-game photographs that question perception\, authorship\, and the status of the image in a pixel-based world. Treating digital environments as real territories\, Greco reframes the virtual horizon as a photographic subject in its own right. \nJoin us at Le Grand Jeu for the vernissage and book launch of Photographie\, Jeu Vidéo\, Paysage. A selection of works will be exhibited in the bookstore\, followed by a conversation and signing with the artist. \n📖 Photographie\, Jeu Vidéo\, Paysage — Vernissage & Book Launch with Pascal Greco\n🗓 Tuesday\, 31 March\, 2026 | 🕓 From 6P.M.\n📍 Le Grand Jeu\, 15 passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11

SUMMARY:RUBUS HOBOS — Rail Stories & Jam Tasting
DESCRIPTION:In a time shaped by speed and constant connection\, freight hopping remains a quiet\, almost invisible way of travelling. Riding freight trains across Europe\, Jens Besser has explored rail yards\, borders and in-between landscapes rarely seen by conventional travellers. Along the tracks\, he began collecting wild blackberries\, a simple gesture that gradually became the core of a larger project. \nWhile waiting for trains\, Jens mapped cultivation areas\, drew sketches and documented life along the rails. The berries he gathered turned into small batches of intensely flavored jams\, and into RUBUS HOBOS\, picking berries along the railroad tracks\, a guide that blends travel narrative\, observation and countercultural memory. \nAt Le Grand Jeu\, Jens will share stories from the railroads\, present a selection of photographs from his journeys\, and offer a tasting of his rare blackberry jams\, served with French croissants and Italian coffee. An invitation to slow down and look differently at what travel can mean. \nThe event operates on a free donation (pay what you want) basis. Attendance is limited to 10 participants. Registration is required. Participants will be contacted in order of registration and will be asked to confirm their attendance shortly before the event. Please register via the following form \n📖 RUBUS HOBOS — Freight Hopper Stories & Jam Tasting\n🗓 Sunday\, March 8\, 2026 | 🕓 From 10 to 12 A.M.\n📍 Le Grand Jeu\, 15 passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11

SUMMARY:Metrocard - New York Stories
DESCRIPTION:In a moment where memories of New York blend with imagination\, Metrocard invites a walk through the city’s first impressions\, seen through a curious and poetic gaze. Beyond a simple travel diary\, it explores fragments of story around Clara and encounters in everyday urban life. \nValentine Métayer transforms these negatives into a Metrocard-format zine\, an accordion fold where each image suggests a story\, a doubt\, an immersion. Between photography and fiction\, the project questions how we interpret the city and visual narrative\, inviting the reader into an intimate\, fragmented universe. \nFor the launch\, the bookstore will present Metrocard\, offering attendees a chance to explore its unique format and imagery up close. \n📖 Metrocard — Fanzine Launch\n🗓 Friday\, March 6th | 🕓 From 6P.M.\n📍 Le Grand Jeu\, 15 passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11

SUMMARY:Shadows – Where the City Fades
DESCRIPTION:Some cities reveal themselves only when you slow down. In Shadows\, Axel Corjon\, designer of the project Fonts Ninja\, walks through Seoul for hours\, hip-hop in his headphones\, letting the city unfold in silence. Between vast avenues and quiet alleys\, Seoul appears as a place of contrast and fragile balance\, where light\, movement\, and chance briefly align. \nThe book is built on instinct rather than intention. Axel does not document the city as it is\, but distills fleeting moments where shadows\, reflections\, and passing figures hover between presence and disappearance. \nThe evening marks the launch of Shadows and is accompanied by a photographic exhibition presenting a selection of images from the book. An intimate moment to discover Axel Corjon’s visual journey through Seoul\, in close connection with the bookstore. \n📖 Shadows — Book launch & photo exhibition with Axel Corjon\n🗓 Thursday\, 26 February\, 2026 | 🕓 From 6 P.M.\n📍 Le Grand Jeu\, 15 passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11

SUMMARY:Murphy’s Law: London Underground
DESCRIPTION:Some publications don’t document graffiti from the outside\, they emerge from within it. Murphy’s Law gathers four years of movement between London and various international cities\, tracing a practice rooted in friendship\, risk and persistence. Between 2022 and 2025\, Murf captured the graffiti of his circle as it unfolded across streets\, train lines and shifting urban landscapes. \nThe 100-page zine combines digital and 35mm photography in a raw\, direct sequence. It reads as a field record rather than a retrospective; images made in motion\, without staging or spectacle. \nFor this in-store launch\, Murphy’s Law will be available in a limited first edition of 75 copies (most already gone). Each copy includes a hand-made sticker by the artist. A rare opportunity to access this field document of graffiti culture. \n📖 Murphy’s Law — In-store launch & signing with Murf\n🗓 Saturday\, February 21\, 2026 | 🕓 From 4 P.M.\n📍 Le Grand Jeu\, 15 passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11

SUMMARY:Queens Boulevard - A Winter Walk Across New York
DESCRIPTION:Queens Boulevard\, a major New York thoroughfare stretching over 11 kilometers\, walked end to end in winter. With his medium format 6×6 analog camera\, Simon Souchois captures storefronts\, signs\, and urban markers encountered along the way\, assembling a visual cartography of the city. \nWith little pedestrian traffic\, the boulevard functions almost as an urban highway\, dividing neighborhoods rather than connecting them. From Long Island City to Jamaica\, it reveals New York’s diversity through a succession of adjoining cultures\, African American\, Caribbean\, Asian\, Hispanic\, Slavic\, and Irish\, a continuous tracking shot across the urban landscape. \nEach photograph is indexed by its exact intersection\, allowing the viewer to retrace the artist’s steps like a travel diary through the urban maze. The series brings together over fifty black-and-white images of street corners\, frozen in the warm light of a New York winter\, and is accompanied by a selection of hand-printed silver gelatin photographs\, printed by the artist and presented in the bookstore. \n📖 Queens Boulevard — A Winter Walk Across New York — Fanzine Launch with Simon Souchois🗓 Friday\, February 20\, 2026 | 🕓 From 6 P.M.📍 Le Grand Jeu\, 15 passage de Ménilmontant\, Paris 11
