Synopsis
This book, which accompanies an exhibition at the National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC, covers Christo and Jeanne-Claude's career of more than 40 years by focusing on 60 major works from the collection of Dorothy and Herbert Vogel. Featured are several early wrapped objects and packages, as well as photographs, preparatory drawings, collages, and models for large-scale public works. An illuminating interview with Christo and Jean-Claude gives insight into the history of their partnership, their working methods, and their artistic principles.
