This book, Christo by Shinchosha Publishing, gives a great look at the artist's journey and his creative path. It talks about his first visit to Japan in 1969, when he thought of covering the paths in Ueno Park with fabric. Although that idea didn’t work out, it led to The Umbrellas, a project between Japan and the U.S. years later. The book shows Christo’s passion and hard work as he brought big projects like The Valley Curtain, Running Fence, Surrounded Islands, and The Pont Neuf Wrapped to life. It also highlights how Christo’s work became more about changing landscapes, and how Jeanne-Claude was key to making these projects possible.
