Christo and Jeanne-Claude
Person
Christo and Jeanne-Claude spent decades negotiating permits, raising money from sales of preparatory drawings and wrapping landmarks such as the Pont Neuf and the Reichstag, then installing The Gates in Central Park in 2005. From the mid-1990s they officially credited all their large works jointly, acknowledging that her organising and persuasion were as central as his drawings. L'Arc de Triomphe, Wrapped was completed in 2021 after both had died.
