Christo and his late wife Jeanne-Claude, who died in 2009, have
been drawing a great deal of attention for years with their
monumental projects. In 2021 many thousands of art lovers will once
again be on the road, this time to Paris. To celebrate the
spectacular wrapping of the Arc de Triomphe, the Centre Pompidou is
paying tribute to this unusual pair of artists with a large
exhibition. The show and its companion book focus on the period
Christo and Jeanne-Claude spent in Paris. Paris means a great deal
to the couple's personal and artistic development. They met here in
1958 and devised the ideas for their first projects together here,
as well. Paris is also the place where Christo and Jeanne-Claude
were able to produce their first large public art project, in 1985:
the wrapping of the Pont Neuf - a project that has gone down in art
history. Through rarely seen early works, studies, drawings, and
collages, the book sheds light on the trailblazing character of the
Paris years, as well as on their great significance to the couple's
artistic development afterward. To the artistic highlight of 2021:
wrapping the Arc de Triomphe!
