RIP Christo and Jeanne-Claude. You were brilliant artists.
Never a cost. Just a reallocation of resources from the ultra wealthy to those who aren’t - using Christo and Jeanne-Claude as a conduit: Steel, lumber, fabric, dye, companies, seamstresses, engineers, skilled installers and laborers. Instead of the wealthy art collector money sitting in investments either theirs or the couples’, it instead gets disbursed. So awesome, with art and smiles in the mix. Some laborer bought groceries for his kids with this installation.
It makes them happy and it's kind of cool the way they wrap things.
Thank you Christo. I now like to think we cover our faces for you.
The beauty of their art was in "Breaking boundaries ". That tenacity, those guts, that grit. We would miss them. Their work would go on to inspire generations.

I saw The Gates in NY, how lucky I was, I was there for the weekend and didn't realize it was only there for two weeks. I've been obsessed with them ever since and just saw a retrospective of their work in Buenos Aires, it was incredible! Nothing else like them.
Just to be happy for a second! Giddy creators! Thank you very much.
EVERYTHING IS ART my Friends! All Good 4 the World🌎🌍🌏🎼🎼🎼🚴
I love art
The line "You'll meet the Christos in a minute" made me cringe. It's Christo Javacheff and Jeanne-Claude Denat. Christo is not their last name.

The fact that he continued to incorrectly refer to them as that throughout the entire thing, too.

Typical Morley Safer. Corporate carnival barker.
I loved The Gates. Christo Rest In Peace.
This type of art has always left me confused. It looks neat but I wonder how much artistic talent goes into them. I feel like anyone could make these installations whereas someone like van Gogh or Cezanne or Rodin created something truly one-of-a-kind. Maybe I'm wrong.

Like the person said before. While many could think it, they actually did it. But when you look into doing it you realize how much planning, materials, and logistics it takes to complete a project like this. Part of the art is how they orchestrated that entire warehouse/manufacturing operations on their own dime for no profit. They provided paying jobs and stimulated the economy with their $20 million rather than hoarding it in stocks and other intangible forms how the 1% does with 40% of the nation's money. Just numbers sitting in a bank account never to serve a utilitarian purpose other than to contribute to inflation, while their numbers in their accounts are used to give jobs to those assembling, manufacturing, moving, and disassembling the art all while making something pretty to look at. That was one of their primary messages. What is the point of having all that money if no one ever uses or sees it?
Farewell artist

Christo's actually really stubborn and he's a really big personality too. His English just isn't as good.

You don’t understand it. I didn’t either when I was there in person way back when. But do some research on why they do what they do, and you’ll change your mind
Complete crap
