Christo, whose real name is Christo Vladimirov Javacheff, has been a well-known artist who was born in Bulgaria for many years. Christo always worked with his wife Jeanne-Claude Denat de Guillebon. The two were always mentioned together, and they worked together until Jeanne-Claude passed away in 2009. Christo's talent was discovered in his early years by the artists who visited his mother's home. From the year 1972, the couple worked exclusively with the photographer Wolfgang Volz.
Some of Christo's great and well-known works are Valley Curtain and Running Fence. In 1995, the couple was allowed to wrap the Reichstag in Berlin.
