Christo Vladimirov Javacheff (Gabrovo, Bulgaria, 1935-2020) Christo was an artist known for his environmental and site-specific style. He gained international fame for his large-scale environmental installations and public artworks. He often collaborated with his wife, Jeanne-Claude, until her passing in 2009. Their works were known for their monumental scale, temporary nature, and the way they interacted with the environment. Some of Christo and Jeanne-Claude's most famous projects include "The Gates" in New York City's Central Park, where they installed thousands of saffron-colored fabric panels along the pathways; the "Wrapped Reichstag" in Berlin, where they covered the entire German parliament building in silver fabric; and "Surrounded Islands" in Miami's Biscayne Bay, where they surrounded a group of islands with pink fabric. Christo's work challenged traditional ideas about art and space, inviting viewers to experience familiar landscapes in new and unexpected ways.
