Jeanne-Claude, wife of artist Christo, passed away yesterday in New York City. She was 74.The pictures above are of Christo's Running Fence, which ran through Sonoma and Marin Counties in September of 1976. For my 9th birthday, my family and a friend of mine drove along the entire 40-kilometer route from Petaluma to Dillon's Beach, where the fence continued into the ocean.
So cool.
Thanks, Jeanne-Claude AND Christo for a terrific piece of art (for all your art, in fact) and for a fondly remembered birthday.
