III.
Exhibition: Barrels & The Mastaba 1958-2018
Artists: Christo & Jeanne Claude
Venue: The Serpentine Gallery
Dates: Until September 9th, 2018
Christo and Jeanne-Claude are celebrated for their ambitious sculptural works that intervene in urban and natural landscapes around the world and temporarily alter both the physical form and visual appearances of sites. This summer, in the heart of London, the Serpentine Galleries presents a major exhibition of the artists’ work, which draws upon their use of barrels to create artworks.
