site.btaBTA National Press Club in Skopje Joins Launch Event for LIK Issue Dedicated to Christo and Jeanne-Claude

Miryana Simonyan, cultural activities expert at the Bulgarian Cultural and Information Centre in Skopje, was a guest at the BTA National Press Club in Skopje for the presentation of the June issue of LIK magazine, dedicated to pioneering artists Christo and Jeanne-Claude. 

Simonyan noted that Christo is not widely known in North Macedonia, but his art is intriguing, provocative, and inspiring. 

June 13 marked the 90th anniversary of the birth of Christo and his wife Jeanne-Claude.

This year also commemorates three major anniversaries related to their work: 40 years since the wrapping of the Pont Neuf in Paris; 30 years since the wrapping of the Reichstag in Berlin; and 20 years since The Gates installation in New York.
