Elson Lecture 2002: Christo and Jeanne-Claude - a podcast by National Gallery of Art, Washington

June 2011 - Christo and Jeanne-Claude, artists. Artists Christo (b. 1935) and Jeanne-Claude (1935?2009) redefined the artistic practice by taking their art out of a museum setting and into urban and natural environments. In this podcast recorded on March 13, 2002, the pair makes their second appearance at the Gallery while the exhibition Christo and Jeanne-Claude in the Vogel Collection was on view. By examining their past and future projects, Christo and Jeanne-Claude explain how the communal construction efforts and the temporary status of their installations have contributed to their impressive qualities.
