Arts Management at College of Charleston

I recently watched a TED talk where the 2011 TED Prize Winner, a French street Artist named JR, talked about the impact art can have on the world. His project is very inspiring and he ends his discussion with a meaningful quote. He says, “Art is not supposed to change the world but can change our perceptions. Art can change the way we see the world.” Art has the power to inspire. By simply taking peoples pictures around the world in areas ranging from the streets of France to the favelas of Brazil, and placing them throughout an area, JR empowered the people.
