Imagined in 1961 by the Bulgarian artist and never produced during his lifetime, the packaging of the Parisian monument becomes reality.


In 1961, the Bulgarian artist Christo and his French wife Jeanne-Claude imagine the Arc de triomphe packed.

Decades later, when the artists have both disappeared, the project, overseen by Christo's nephew, comes to fruition in Paris.

It will be officially inaugurated on September 18.

From conception to realization, we take a look back at the genesis of Christo's final work.
