[00:01.28]Two or three new projects are currently

[00:03.58]being developed by Christo and his team.

[00:06.12]One of them is in Colorado in the USA

[00:08.66]where the Arkansas River will be covered

[00:11.07]by 10 kilometres of luminous 1,

[00:13.59]translucent fabric 2.

[00:15.42]The fabric is going to be suspended

[00:17.30]above the river so that the work of art

[00:19.72]can be seen from both above and below.

[00:22.91]Thousands of people will be needed to complete

[00:25.43]this feat 3 of enginnering.

[00:27.47]Christo manages to do all this

[00:29.54]without being given any money-

[00:31.49]his projects are financed completely

[00:33.70]by the sale of his drawings

[00:35.53]through galleries and over the Internet.

[00:38.32]Christo's works of art are dismantled 4

[00:40.71]after only two or three weeks,

[00:42.86]but hundreds of visitors manage to see them.

[00:45.31]When The Reichstag was being displayed it

[00:48.15]attracted huge numbers of visitors

[00:50.34]from around the world.

[00:51.95]However, his work still tends to be criticized.

[00:55.60]"What's the point of it all?

[00:57.37]Why bother when it takes so long?"

[00:59.77]Christo replies that their work

[01:01.77]is a kind of architecture and they use space,

[01:05.33]light and texture 5 to make beautiful things.

[01:07.69]
