Surrounded Island

Christo’s surrounded islands project was an artwork of stunning beauty born of sustained dedication as well as a staggering financial outlay of over 3 million dollars by the artist. The film traces the project over the seven days of installation by Christo and his team of 400 helpers, to its completion and contains breathtaking aerial imagery of the project and the eleven islands it embraces in Biscayne Bay. The film is essential viewing for anyone studying the genre.
