Christo
Christo was a Bulgarian-American artist known for his monumental wrapping projects, in which he covered buildings, monuments, and landscapes with fabric. Together with his wife Jeanne-Claude, he created some of the most impressive and well-known temporary art installations of the 20th century. Their projects, such as the wrapping of the Reichstag in Berlin and the Pont Neuf in Paris, were masterpieces of public sculpture and challenged conventions of art and architecture. Christo and Jeanne-Claude are often associated with other artists of Land Art and temporary art. Robert Smithson, a pioneer of Land Art, is known for his monumental installations in nature, which similarly emphasize the ephemeral and context. Artists like Richard Long, who works with natural materials and landscapes, and Andy Goldsworthy, whose ephemeral sculptures are made from natural materials, share Christo's interest in the temporary nature of art in public spaces.

Seller's Story
We have been operating several online shops in the art trade for over 20 years. On the one hand, we specialize in rare art prints, exhibition posters and collectible reproductions, and on the other hand, we trade in art editions and originals by well-known contemporary artists.
The works we offer all come from the respective publishers, art galleries and institutions such as museums that published them in close cooperation with the artists. The works you find with us are often several decades old, in perfect or good condition and without a previous private owner.
We place particular emphasis on professional packaging. Nothing is more annoying than purchasing a rare print that arrives damaged due to poor or inadequate packaging.
If you have any questions about the works on offer, we are always happy to help you!
