Identity, gender and the performative in Christo and Jeanne-Claudes work

More about the book

Exploring identity, gender, and performativity, the essay examines the often-overlooked themes in Christo and Jeanne-Claude's monumental art projects. While their large-scale installations, such as Wrapped Coast and The Gates, dominate public perception, the authors argue that these works blur identities and challenge traditional notions of gender. The essay highlights Christo's connections to Dada and Surrealism, emphasizing the performative nature of their art, which transcends specific times and locations. Additionally, it addresses the political complexities involved in realizing their environmental installations.
