Christo

Javashev Christo, commonly known as just, "Christo" is an innovative, creative artist who comes up with ideas that at first seem impossible and makes them a reality. He is a spontaneous artist who likes to surprise and overwhelm, by exceeding the traditional boundaries of painting, drawing, sculpture, and architecture. (Prokopoff 1) Even though some believe it is irrelevant, and not art at all, Christo's urban art has a lot of influence on our everyday lives because …

…Christo's wrappings we are prompted to engage, and to question. It invokes our curiosity as well as our emotions and memories through political context. "They make us conscious of our situation at this place in time, historically and politically, but also of our existence between the past and the future" (Baal-Tushuva 12). Art isn't always just what you did or what you used, it is sometime more about the emotions, and the ideas that surround it. .
