Summary
"When Christo met Jeanne-Claude, the two instantly recognized each other as kindred spirits. Christo's innovative approach to art -- wrapping everyday objects to make people consider and reconsider the items underneath -- sparked Jeanne-Claude's imagination, and the two began a collaboration and a marriage that would last more than fifty years. During that time, they changed the world with their bold, once-in-a-lifetime public installations that brought millions of viewers into the art and made them see the world anew." --Book jacket
