Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Christo (born 1935) and Jeanne-Claude (1935-2009) have created some of the most visually breathtaking works of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Their projects have traversed and transcended the boundaries of painting, sculpture and architecture. This lavishly designed, epic volume brings together a wealth of archival material and photographic documentation to offer an intimate behind-the-scenes view of the monumental installations with which the couple have dazzled the public. Photographs portraying the artists at work are supplemented by pictures of all their major projects--Wrapped Coast (1968-69), Valley Curtain (1970-72), Running Fence (1972-76), Surrounded Islands (1980-83), The Pont Neuf Wrapped (1975-85), The Umbrellas (1984-91), Wrapped Reichstag (1971-95) and The Gates (1979-2005)--as well as reproductions of drawings, collages and objects. Matthias Koddenberg, art historian and close friend of the artists, spent many years compiling the more than 250 mostly unpublished photographs and illustrations assembled here. Many of them show works that were previously unknown or thought lost, including early drawings and paintings dating back to when Christo was still studying art in Bulgaria. Others document temporary sculptures--Wrapped Woman (1962, 1963 and 1968), Wrapped Volkswagen (1963) and Wrapped Tree (1966 and 1969)--or works that were intentionally destroyed and only survive as photographs. The publication was put together in close collaboration with Christo and includes documentation by renowned photographers such as Ugo Mulas, Enzo Sellerio, Harry Shunk and Janos Kender, Charles Wilp and Wolfgang Volz, who has documented all of the artists' projects since 1971, together with photos by associates and friends as well as pictures from the artists' private archives.

Boldly inscribed: "Christo / For Jeanette". Publisher's cloth, pictorial dustjacket. (The dustjacket has faintly visible traces on rear from someone writing a greeting on a piece of paper with the book as a support.) Very fine. Provenance: Jeanette Bonnier (1934-2016), founder in 2006 of the Bonniers Konsthall in Stockholm, Sweden. Köln, Taschen, 2012. 27 x 29 cms. 176 pp. incl. fold-outs. Illustrated with colour photographs throughout. Bilingual in English and Arabic. The Mastaba, a project for Abu Dhabi, was conceived in 1977. It will be the largest sculpture in the world, made from 410,000 multi-colored barrels to form a mosaic of bright sparkling colors, echoing Islamic architecture. The Mastaba is an ancient and familiar shape to the people of the region. The Mastaba will be 150 meters high, 225 meters deep at the 60 degree slanted walls and 300 meters wide at the vertical walls. The top of The Mastaba will be a horizontal surface 126.8 meters wide and 225 meters deep. The colors and the positioning of the 55-gallon steel barrels were selected by Christo and Jeanne-Claude in 1979, the year in which the artists visited the Emirate for the first time. The proposed area is inland, in Al Gharbia (Western Region) approximately 160 kilometers south of the city of Abu Dhabi, near the oasis of Liwa. In 2007 and 2008, Christo and Jeanne-Claude contracted professors of engineering from ETH Zürich (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich), University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in the US, Cambridge University in the UK and Hosei University in Tokyo, Japan, to prepare structural feasibility studies about The Mastaba. All four teams worked independently and did not know of each other. The artists then hired the German engineering firm, Schlaich Bergermann und Partner, in Stuttgart, to analyze these reports. The Hosei University concept was found to be the most technically sound and innovative. The entire substructure as well as the layer of barrels will be assembled flat on the ground. Ten elevation towers will make it possible to raise the entire structure on rails to its final position in about 3 to 4 days. In 2012, Christo commissioned Pricewaterhouse Coopers to conduct analyses on the social and economic benefits of The Mastaba. Christo and Jeanne-Claude's relationship with Abu Dhabi goes back to 1979 when they first visited the Emirate. They have returned many times since, creating a longstanding friendship with the people of Abu Dhabi. The Mastaba will be Christo and Jeanne-Claude's only permanent large-scale work.
