Walking on Water - An art project by Christo | via

On Thursday, the artist tried out his latest project, “The Floating Piers,” a walkway stretching three kilometers, or nearly two miles, to connect two small islands in Lake Iseo, in Italy’s Lombardy region, to each other and to the mainland.

Christo walked on the floating walkway of puckered yellow-orange nylon fabric, crafted to change color according to the time of the day and the weather. On Thursday, it was pockmarked with bright orange blotches left by footsteps treading on the rain-drenched fabric.

“The Floating Piers” is his first outdoor installation since 2005, when he and Jeanne-Claude, his collaborator and wife, who passed away in 2009, installed 7,500 golden-paneled gates in Central Park in New York City. Like his other works, the 15-million-euro, or $16.8 million, project will be funded through the sale of his original works of art.

“I think this is a record in the history of Christo’s special projects because he and the team realized it in 22 months; normally it takes decades,” the director of the project, the curator Germano Celant, said on Thursday. “So I will say that it’s an Italian and American miracle at the same time.”
