Le Grand Jeu

Le Grand Jeu Le Grand Jeu is a Parisian agency and bookstore devoted to street cultures.

Le Grand Jeu is a Parisian agency and bookstore, created in 2012 by Christian Omodeo. We develop projects and events for public institutions and private companies that want to collaborate with graffiti writers and street artists. We are internationally renowned for our knowledge of the history of art in public spaces and for an expertise that constantly allow us to provide a high-quality service o

f art advising and curatorship. All over Europe, important institutions and brands, such as the French Minister of Culture, the Foundation Genus Bononie, Public Services International, Pirelli, Prelios and Fandango have already trusted us. In 2015, our passion for graffiti writing and street art led us to create a webstore where to buy old and rare books and magazines devoted to these street cultures. Our store is today internationally considered the place-to-be, if you are searching both for new and old publications focusing on graffiti writing, street art and related topics. Johan Huizinga wrote in ‘Homo Ludens’, his famous essay from 1938, that game is the very condition of the existence of culture. This is our name is Le Grand Jeu (The Big Game) and why our logo evokes the fabulous ’L’Introuvable’ by Marcel Mariën.

🦇🎛️ Techno & paleolithic caves, same fight.

DJ and composer Holeg Spies just released Échos des Origines (Signal Zéro Editions), an essay connecting the sonic rituals of 30,000 year old caves to 90s raves.

His thesis : paleolithic frescoes were painted on the most resonant walls. People danced there, listened there, in the dark, together. Exactly like a warehouse at 4am.

He develops the concept of ecophonism, thinking together the place, the body, the listening and the moment, and argues that our real problem today is that we’ve stopped truly listening.

Prefaced by Isabelle Warnier Henry (widow of Pierre Henry), with afterwords from an astrophysicist at the CEA and an archaeologist at the CNRS. And last but not least a conclusion written by an AI, which Holeg asked one single question : what role could it play in helping us reconnect with listening ?

30,000 years of bass. One single need : making society.

📖 Échos des Origines, now available online and at the bookstore !
