Notes

Teel Sale is an artist and writer specializing in fine art prints, mixed media, drawing, and other works on paper. Sale taught at the University of North Texas beginning in the 1970s, retiring in 1989. Sale wrote Drawing: A Contemporary Approach with Claudia Betti, which was a useful reference book for artists and art majors at the university level.

In her title of this print, Sale is referencing famous public artists Christo and Jeanne-Claude. The husband and wife pair are most famous for their monumental wrapped architecture and outdoor projects, such as Valley Curtain in Colorado (1970–72), Surrounded Islands in Miami (1980–83), The Pont Neuf Wrapped in Paris (1975–85), Wrapped Reichstag in Berlin (1972–95), The Gates in New York's Central Park (1979–2005), The Floating Piers at Italy's Lake Iseo (2014–16), and most recently the posthumously realized project L'Arc de Triomphe, Wrapped (2021). Christo and Jeanne-Claude's artwork transcends the traditional bounds of painting, sculpture, environmental art, and architecture.
