Precious relic of the passage of time, age appears on the walls of Cartagena, Spain, in the fall of 2008. The oldest inhabitants of this Spanish town are pasted on the heights of the city. Faces of men that suffered from the civil war stand on the historical facades.

The Wrinkles of the City is a world-scale project aimed to be presented in various cities around the world where “wrinkles”, human as well as architectural, can be found.

So far, JR has pasted The Wrinkles of the City in Cartagena, Spain (2008), in Shanghai, China (2010), Los Angeles, USA (2011) and La Habana, Cuba (2012), in collaboration with US artist José Parlá. In Spanish, the project is entitled Los Surcos de la Ciudad.
