After its inaugural exhibition at the Brooklyn Museum in New York (1), and a European tour (2) at the Saatchi Gallery in London (UK), the Groninger Museum in the Netherlands (3), and next in Germany at the Kunsthalle in Munich, JR: Chronicles is now for the first time in Asia at the LOTTE Museum of Art in Seoul (South Korea).

This film wasn’t replaced by the special exhibition edition (with updated credits) we offered (Sep 2019) for the premiere of JR: Chronicles in the Brooklyn Museum. We later did publish that new 4K edition online , entitled “Béguinage Refugees Into The Wild ~ JR: Chronicles Edition” (5).
