Wrapped cans and a bottle

The death was reported yesterday, of Christo Vladimir Javacheff (1935 - 2020) the Bulgarian artist, who, with his wife Jeanne-Claude Denat de Guillebon (1935 - 2009) wrapped things.

They wrapped buildings (The Reichstag in Berlin, the Pont-Neuf in Paris) and many other famous landscape elements.

He is also known for a series of wrapped cans, and bottles, etc,

My homage to them today is this four piece ensemble, entitled
Wrapped Cans and a Bottle
1958

You can see the original on their website, just scroll down a little.


What imaginations they had.
