Extract

Javashev Christo, commonly known as just, "Christo" is an innovative, creative artist who comes up with ideas that at first seem impossible and makes them a reality. He is a spontaneous artist who likes to surprise and overwhelm, by exceeding the traditional boundaries of painting, drawing, sculpture, and architecture. (Prokopoff 1) Even though some believe it is irrelevant, and not art at all, Christo's urban art has a lot of influence on our everyday lives because of its large-scale intervention, and its political and cultural context.
