Christo: Surrounded Islands 1980-1983 Book
Christo: Surrounded Islands 1980-1983, written by Werner Spies, meticulously documents one of the most iconic projects of the artistic duo Christo and Jeanne-Claude: the Surrounded Islands installation in Biscayne Bay, Miami. This monumental work consisted of surrounding eleven artificial islands with 6.5 million square feet of pink polypropylene fabric, creating a striking visual contrast between the natural environment and the artistic intervention.
