STATEMENT ON CHRISTO May 31, 2020

Christo

shares thoughts on projects past and present === with Jonathan Bastable in Christie's Magazine: "We haven't ever proposed anything impossible. But when we start, we don't know how we are going to realize the concept ... That is the most exciting part. It would be foolish of us to do something that we already know — so boring and unnecessary. I am nearly 83 and still in good health, knocking on wood. And I love that life is full of things that I don't know how to do."
