The Taschen Basic Art Album series is the perfect and best value for money introduction to the work of Christo. As the scans below demonstrate it is packed with info and examples of his work.

I can't recommend this book highly enough for students wanting to know about his life and how he arrived at specific 'wrappings'; or indeed for anyone with even just a passing interest in the work of one of the great names in modern art.

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.
