Jonk & Friends: the exhibition that blends street art and photography at the Nature Forte Gallery

If you’re a fan of urban exploration, you’ve no doubt heard of Jonk. A photographer specializing in urbex, Jonk opened his very first gallery in Paris in March 2023. Nestled in the 10th arrondissement and dubbed Galerie Nature Forte, this space highlights artists who reveal nature’s power through painting, sculpture, photography, drawing, and illustration.

Since it opened, exhibitions have been rolling one after another. Recently, the gallery notably transformed into a giant color swatch before presenting the second edition of the installation 'Street Nature Forte'. This spring, a new theme and a new show: Jonk invites several of his artist friends to contribute to his photographs.

Entitled "Jonk & Friends", this exhibition offers a chance to view a selection of the photographer's urbex prints and to admire the work of urban artists reinterpreting these iconic images. In total, Jonk has invited 13 of his friends, among them Horss, Mouarf, S4m, Siel, Bault, and Jace, who will also be the focus of a spring show in the 13th arrondissement in an another show to discover there. For "Jonk & Friends", all participants will present works in a single, 60 x 80 cm format.
