Never-before-seen works from Christo and Jeanne-Claude will finally be seeing the light of day. The Hexton Gallery in Aspen presents the “Christo and Jeanne-Claude: Ephemeral Nature” exhibit, featuring a selection of Christo’s original works, many of which have never been seen by the public. The artistic couple is known for their interventions of famous monuments and natural spaces, and their famous 1972 “Valley Curtain” project, which involved stretching an orange curtain across Colorado State Highway 325, celebrates its 50th anniversary this year. It is the first showing of Christo’s art since his passing in May 2020. The display will feature the couple’s “Wrapped Objects,” including a wrapped flower bouquet Christo had gifted his wife, alongside pieces from “The Umbrellas: Project for USA and Japan,” “Over the River,” “The Gates Project,” and “Valley Curtain.”
