And so a miniature Don Quixote emerged from a Bulgarian textile factory and became a man who temporarily transformed objects into objects that are also simultaneously their representamens - what Pierre Restany the art critic at the time called "a second skin" - and made possible new types of interpretants for the public. With each Maysles film about Christo that I watch, the more that I admire him (as well as Albert and David) and to a lesser extent Jean-Claude.
