Storied environmental installation artist Christo and his long-time partner Jean-Claude are known for their series of “wrapped” architectures and natural landmarks across the globe. These projects took years to plan, fund, and implement, while the creations themselves were ephemeral monuments that attracted international attention. The Bulgarian artist funded all his endeavors by selling drawings and models of his sculptural works, each wrapped in his trademark billowing fabric.
