About the Item

This rare poster is an early work by Christo from 1968, created as part of his ambitious project to wrap the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York City. Christo used the proceeds from the sale of his posters, prints and drawings not only to promote the feasibility of this visionary project but also to help finance the many other projects he hoped to realize. This piece is a rare and valuable collectible, reflecting Christo's innovative approach to environmental art and his dedication to bringing large-scale artistic concepts to life.
