About the Item

CHRISTO & JEANNE-CLAUDE (1935-2020)(1935-2009) Christo & Jeanne-Claude 75, 2010, by Taschen. Biographical book retracing the complete work of Christo and Jeanne Claude's projects up to 2010. Sold in its canvas box. Signed and numbered 33/1100. It was designed by Christo himself and was conceived originally to mark Christo and Jeanne-Claude's 75th birthdays, it features hundreds of previously unpublished photographs, drawings and plans, a detailed history, and in-depth interviews, including Jeanne-Claude's final public conversation about her work, who died in 2009, a year before publication. The duo is perhaps best remembered for wrapping architecture and natural elements in fabric, such as the Arc de Triomphe in Paris or The Gates in New York's Central Park. Photographs throughout the book are by Wolfgang Volz, many full page.
