Wrapping historic structures in silvery fabric and blue cable - a famous tradition for Christo and Jeanne-Claude.
In the summer of 1995, the Reichstag building in Berlin was transformed into an immense sculptural experience by Christo and his wife Jeanne-Claude along with a team of hundreds.
Wrapping historic structures in silvery fabric and blue cable has become a famous tradition for Christo and Jeanne-Claude: landscape projects in the USA, Japan, and Australia and urban projects such as the Pont Neuf in Paris have established them as the most extraordinary artist couple of the age.
This in-depth survey of their unusual work is illustrated with absorbing photographs by Wolfgang Volz.
A perfect introduction to Christo and Jeanne-Claude and their art. An easy read with some great photos and as you would expect from a Taschen book neatly put together. Moreover, I found it an intriguing read looking at how these great structures and projects ever saw the light of day and also looking at the struggles that Christo has faced to see his vision become a reality.

Christo and Jeanne-Claude's Umbrella Project in 1991 was the most ambitious and expensive project they have ever undertaken.
1340 blue six metre umbrellas were assembled and erected throughout a narrow valley in rural Japan. 7000 yellow umbrellas were similarly prepared across the Pacific in a dry expanse of Californian land. After months of gruelling process, the two countries united as the forest of umbrellas were opened simultaneously on both continents. The blue symbolised the plentitude of water in the Japanese terrain, and the yellow represented the heat of the American valley. For Christo the umbrellas were "freestanding, dynamic modules... which reflected the availability of the land in each valley, creating an invitational, inner space".
The umbrellas were removed after two weeks, but the memories of this unrepeatable and transient endeavour have now been collected in this official book of documentation designed by Christo and Jeanne-Claude. Thousands of photographs, plans, sketches, notes and a retrospective text provide the core source material, covering every stage of the project from inception to aftermath. A very special edition indeed.
