Christo and Jeanne-Claude

Christo Vladimirov Javacheff (1935–2020; Bulgarian: Христо Владимиров Явашев) and Jeanne-Claude Denat de Guillebon (1935–2009), known as Christo and Jeanne-Claude, were artists noted for their large-scale, site-specific environmental installations, often large landmarks and landscape elements wrapped in fabric, including the Wrapped Reichstag, The Pont Neuf Wrapped, Running Fence in California, and The Gates in New York City's Central Park. Christo and Jeanne-Claude were both born on June 13, 1935, in Bulgaria and Morocco, respectively. The pair met and married in Paris in the late 1950s.
