Christo & Jeanne-claude: The Gates Volz, Wolfgang
Taschen April 7, 2005 3-8228-4242-7 / 9783822842423 Paperback New
Famous for massive public art projects, including "Wrapped Coast, One Million Square Feet" in Australia and "Running Fence" in Northern California, Christo Javacheff and his wife Jeanne-Claude were used to dealing with intransigent bureaucracies. But they hadn't reckoned with New York City. The couple's 1979 project--temporarily placing thousands of saffron-colored bannersacross the walkways of 843-acre Central Park--did not receive the city's blessing until 2003. Published in advance of the 16-day installation in February 2005, Christo and Jeanne-Claude: The Gates is a picture book that moves briskly from photographs of early presentations and hearings to numerousshots of workers assembling the steel, aluminum, vinyl and rip-stop nylon components of the piece.Slight shelfwear, else as new.
