Today in Paris marks the unveiling of the infamous Christo and Jeanne-Claude's posthumous dream project -- "L‘Arc de Triomphe, Wrapped”. Artlaws is thrilled to present a special event interview with celebrated artist and photographer Simon Chaput who knew Christo and Jeanne-Claude intimately, as both friend and colleague. After meeting the artist couple in New York in 1983, Simon quickly became an integral part of their life and their work.
Christo and Jeanne-Claude were an unparalleled artistic duo celebrated for their magnificent, monumental, and ephemeral environmental installations often unprecedented in scale -- such as "Running Fence" down the California coast, "The Gates" in New York’s Central Park, and "Wrapped Coast" in Australia. Also known for wrapping architecture and natural elements in fabric -- such as “Surrounded Islands” in Miami and the “Wrapped Reichstag” in Berlin -- their poetic public works transcended traditional boundaries of painting, sculpture, and architecture. What stands behind each work has always been a powerful call for freedom and beauty.
"L’Arc de Triomphe, Wrapped" -- a project first conceived by the artists sixty years ago -- has today been fully realized. We spoke with Simon leading up to and en route to this unprecedented event.
