description

An early comprehensive monograph on the artist Christo by David Bourdain. "'With ordinary fabric and cord, Christo has wrapped an imposing bundle of work and secured for himself a prominent position mid-century art. He has packaged everything from tin cans to entire buildings. In his mile-long stretch of warpped seacoast in Australia, he has provided one of the eeriest visual spectacles of our time. It has been an extraordinary and fascinating career - especially for a Bulgarian refugee who, within the space of a few years, has become an international art celebrity." Includes notes to the text, biographical outline, and selected bibliography. Other artists mentioned throughout the text include John Haberle, Man Ray, Henry Moore, Arman, Daniel Spoerri, Yves Klein, Edward Hopper, René Magritte, Joseph Cornell, and George Segal. Includes 320 illustrations, with 84 in full color.
