Interested in the relations between cities, the citizen and the arts, this project turns to the work of the French multi-media urban artist JR. The research is guided by the hypothesis that his production can be inserted in the so-called rebel culture, emphasizing the utopian content in its production, having the assumption to use art as an instrument of intervention and social revolution. The corpus of the research comprises the projects of JR that, since 2005, began to have international scope, such as Women are Heroes (2008 - 2010), Rio de Janeiro and Wrinkles of the City (2008-), Cuba . The artist transits among photography, video, dance, scenography, music and, in the limit, digital media, having a personal website as the final support of his interventions. Thus, in consonance with the extremely hybrid nature of the object and the research hypothesis, the communicational ambience and the intersemiotic relations among the mediatic discourses, involved in creative processes, are equally considered. The state of the art involves studies focused on the historical vanguards, such as Le Siècle Rebelle - Dictionaire de la Contestation au XX Siècle de Emmanuel de Waresquiel. The main theoretical references refer to the theories of the image, as formulated by Rancière in O Destino das Imagens and, alternatively, the Hubermasian theory, with emphasis on the reading model proposed in Diante da Imagem. Methodologically, the research is bibliographical and documentary. We believe that its relevance lies in unveiling an internationally renowned artist, still unkown among us and – above all - pointing out an interesting form of convergence between art and social communication
