“Beauty, science and art will always triumph.”

Christo, Letter 1958

 

In today’s sunday paper, we remember Bulgarian artist Christo, who passed away at his home last week. The 84-year-old luminary was celebrated for the large-scale, outdoor art installations he created with his wife and artistic partner Jeanne-Claude.

Below, the couple’s famous marigold Floating Piers on Italy’s Lake Iseo showed usĀ it’s possible to walk on water. Though his works were temporary, Christo’s vision of a more colorful planet indelibly changed the way we see the world.

Happy Sunday from CSM. See you soon.
