(*) Christo Vladimirov Javacheff was born in 1935 in Babrovo (Bulgaria). He studied fine arts in Sofia between 1952 and 1956. Christo settled in Paris in 1958 and met Jeanne-Claude de Guillebon, born the same year as him. They married and decided to join their talents as creators. The first exhibition of the two artists was organized in 1961. In that same year they created wrappings at the port of Cologne. The following year, as a protest against the Berlin Wall, they created in Paris, on Visconti Street, a gigantic assembly stacking oil drums and gasoline drums. This period is the starting point for thousands of proposals, including numerous realizations, poetic wrapping projects and gigantic works that seek to manifest the ephemeral as artistic expression. The couple moved to New York in 1964 and Christo and Jeanne-Claude became U.S. citizens. They took over space, wrapped, cut, colored, monuments and landscapes, giving the urban, rural or maritime landscapes of their choice a new sculptural dimension (Valley Curtain, Running Fence, Surrounded Islands, Biscayne Bay, Pont Neuf in Paris, Reichstag in Berlin…). Christo and Jeanne-Claude are distinguished by the fact that they themselves defend their projects and produce them with their own means. For each of them they execute preparatory drawings, graphic works (lithographs and serigraphs), collages, maquettes and films whose sale funds the project itself. “The Gates,” their latest realization, was presented in New York at the beginning of 2005. It is a 37-kilometer walkway through Central Park dotted with 7,500 gates wrapped with saffron-colored fabrics. Their next project is titled ”Over the Arkansas River”; it will be installed in Colorado. Christo died at eighty-four on May 31, 2020.
