RIP Christo, by Terry Fuckwitt on Jun 1, 2020 14:09:09 GMT 1, Very sad news. I'm glad I made the effort a couple of years ago to the Serpentine to see the Mastaba piece, really was quite something. A huge loss to the art world

That looks great. I'm teaching my kids art / history of art while we're home schooling and thought i'd teach them about Christo today now. So we watched a few video's online and looked at his work and saw loads of these sketches for his ideas. Was very surprised how long he works on each project for and the hard work in getting them done.
We then went down to our local park and tried wrapping a bench in material, but it looked crap, so we ended up wrapping a tree trunk together as a little nod.

RIP Christo, by ab3 on Jun 1, 2020 16:41:20 GMT 1, Eww....spot colour.
As a photographer, I really don't like that. I think it would have looked great in full colour, why make it look like an Ikea print.

RIP Christo, by mj on Jun 1, 2020 19:50:43 GMT 1, What a great lost to the art world, I had the pleasure of meeting him two times and my girlfriend and I were looking forward to go Paris this year to see the installation. But due to Covid 19 this was postponed until next year, I still hope they do it in his homage RIP Christo
