Christo has unveiled the “largest indoor sculpture ever made”.

The inflated, light-infused installation, “Big Air Package” has been designed to occupy a 117-meter-tall former gas tank known as Gasometer Oberhausen in Germany. The 90-meter-high, 50-meter-wide sculpture is made from 20,350 square meters of semitransparent polyester fabric and 4,500 meters of rope, with a total weight of 5.3 tons and a volume of 177,000 cubic meters.

“Big Air Package” will remain on view from March 16 through December 2013

U.S. Approves Christo’s ‘Over the River’ Project in Colorado

U.S. Approves Christo’s ‘Over the River’ Project in Colorado | Art Installations, Sculpture, Contemporary Art | Scoop.it

DENVER — Federal regulators on Monday approved a $50 million installation of anchored fabric over the Arkansas River in southern Colorado by the artist Christo, whose larger-than-life vision has divided environmentalists, residents and politicians for years over questions of aesthetics, nature and economic impact.

The project, “Over the River,” will include eight suspended panel segments totaling 5.9 miles along a 42-mile stretch of the river, about three hours southwest of Denver. Construction could begin next year, pending final local approvals, with the goal being a two-week display of the work as early as August 2014.
