Walking on Water (2018)
I find the works of Christo and Jeanne-Claude to be fascinating and I am disappointed that I never had a chance to experience any of them in person. This film documents the production of The Floating Piers, Christo’s first work after Jeanne-Claude’s death but one they had conceived and attempted to produce for many years. It’s a bit repetitive in scope, but still offers an interesting behind the scenes look at what goes into a large scale art installation. Christo was definitely an intriguing character and his micro-management is understandable based on the incompetence that is often found when dealing with bureaucracies.
