Those who walked the High Line the past few days watched as JR and his crew revealed an enormous pasted portrait of Brandon Many Ribs from the Standing Rock Reservation in North Dakota. This was a continuation of JR’s Inside Out Project that brings faces of the Lakota people to New York.

Martha Cooper was on hand to document the larger than life image going up, “Cameras, phones and iPads got a work out over the past few days as JR & Crew pasted a humongous portrait of Brandon Many Ribs on a wall adjacent to the High Line at 29th Street.” Martha Cooper provides us with photos of the the production and final product below.
