Condition
This work is in excellent condition overall. The collage elements appear stable and well intact. The creases to the fabric and plastic collage elements are consistent with the artist's choice of medium and working method.

Please Note: The artist has requested the purchaser's name be remitted to him. Christo’s Wrapped Objects explore the transformative effect fabric and tactile surfaces have when wrapped around familiar objects. The concealment caused by the fabric challenges the viewer to reappraise the objects beneath and the space in which it exists. For those Wrapped Objects that are packaged in translucent polyethylene, little is left to the imagination, but the material gives the everyday objects an additional sculptural quality.
