Christo and Jean Claude are a married couple who have changed the landscape of installation art as we know it. Christo and Jean Claude seek to cover all areas of a space by draping various types of fabric over hundreds of feet and sometimes almost a mile in length. Imagine when you were a child and your parents tucked you into bed at night, the feeling of the blanket running across your body, eventually engulfing you in it's size was soothing and comforting. Christo and Jean Claude accomplish the same effect or feeling in nature and in the city. Their most recent project came in 2005 installed in New York City's Central Park, "The Gates", in which they constructed hundreds of orange painted metal "gates" with hanging and flowing pieces of orange fabric throughout the entire park. The hanging fabric changed the landscape of Central Park and gave the viewer a constant reminder of the art of installation.
保加利亞籍的藝術家 Christo Vladimirov Javacheff,今年5月31日於紐約家中離世,享壽84歲。 這位藝術家與同年同月同日生的妻子 Jeanne Claude 曾攜手至世界各地,創造出令人讚嘆不已的地景藝術,他們倆的作品總是在人們習以為常的風景中,突然以鮮豔的色彩與創意撼動我們的視覺感官。 逝世消息來得突然,在這之前Christo仍在策劃地景藝術行動,預計於2021年包覆巴黎凱旋門「L'Arc de Triomphe Wrapped」。Christo 可說是現代的地景藝術之父,他與妻子一生為藝術付出,即使作品如同生命終將逝去,藝術之美卻將永遠留在我們的心中,一起重新認識這位藝術大師吧。
