1 week agoFrench Artist JR to Wrap Pont Neuf in Paris as Christo Tribute
Artist JR will wrap Paris's 761-foot Pont Neuf in fabric next June as Pont Neuf Cavern, honoring Christo and Jeanne-Claude's large-scale wrapping legacy.
In September 1985, Christo and Jeanne-Claude created a temporary public art project in Paris by wrapping the Pont Neuf, the oldest bridge in the city with gold-colored fabric.
