Their works, which often wrapped monumental structures and landscapes, questioned traditional concepts of art and played with the perception of space and object. Christo and Jeanne-Claude's works stand in the tradition of Marcel Duchamp's Readymade concept, in which everyday objects are placed in a new artistic context. Duchamp's "Fountain" (1917) questioned the nature of art, in a similar way that Christo's "Wrapped Reichstag" (1995) or the "Wrapped Pont Neuf" (1985) reinterpreted the function and meaning of architecture. These wrappings also reference the works of Man Ray, whose "The Enigma of Isidore Ducasse" (1920) likewise played with wrapping and mystery. Their temporary works and focus on impermanence connect them with artists such as Eva Hesse and Robert Morris. Hesse's "Repetition Nineteen III" (1968) and Morris' installations also reflect the idea that art does not have to be eternal to leave a deep impression. The temporal finiteness of their works makes the process of creation and decay a central part of the artistic statement. Thematically related artists: Jeanne-Claude, Yves Klein, Arman, Niki de Saint Phalle, Jean Tinguely, Claes Oldenburg, Robert Rauschenberg, Jasper Johns, Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, Robert Smithson, Michael Heizer, Walter De Maria, Sol LeWitt, Richard Long, Joseph Beuys, Daniel Buren, Gordon Matta-Clark, Bruce Nauman, Marina Abramović, Vito Acconci, James Turrell, Donald Judd, Carl Andre, Dan Flavin, John Cage, Nam June Paik, Yoko Ono In summary, Christo and Jeanne-Claude remain central figures of modern art, who blurred the boundaries between art, architecture, and nature.
