Tonight at the Hirshhorn Museum (6:30 pm in the Ring Auditorium, 700 Independence Ave., SW), the artist Christo will discuss two of his ongoing projects “Over the River, 5.9 miles of fabric panels to be temporarily suspended above 42 miles of the Arkansas River in Colorado, and The Mastaba, the largest sculpture in the world and the pair’s only permanent large-scale work, to be located near Abu Dhabi.”
Best known for his large-scale installations where he wrapped iconic landmarks and buildings, Christo’s most recent installation in the United States was in 2005. The Gates was an installation of 7,503 orange fabric structures along the paths of Central Park in New York.
Tonight’s lecture is free and open to the public on a first come, first serve basis.
