Christo
Published in 1972 during the “golden era” of Abrams monographs, this classic publication on Christo provides a well-illustrated overview of the artist’s early career, including an essay by David Bourdon. It features color and black-and-white photography of many of Christo’s first Wrapped Objects (1958–69), which incorporate conventional art materials such as paint cans and pigment bottles, swathed in resin-soaked canvas, as well as a number of topographical maps and plans printed on vellum. The book has a partially transparent plastic jacket through which a cross section of a drawing reproduced on the cover is visible, alluding to the Wrapped Objects, which alternately reveal and conceal the items’ identities.
