Christo and Jean-Claude, Wrapped Pont Neuf



This is spectacular. Christo and Jean-Claude create these installations that are ephemeral and only stay up for a short period of time. In this one, they wrapped the Pont Neuf in France with champagne colored fabric. Somehow, they manage to assemble these installations without damaging the existing architecture or natural surroundings. Their works have an incredible play with light that makes the appearance of the fabric change with different times of the day and they are truly beautiful. I will definitely put up other works by them because it moves me. Until then, check out the transformative powers of Christo and Jean-Claude.
