    One of the world's most unique and IMO creative artists. Was lucky enough to briefly work on one of his projects, the Rifle Gap curtain in Colorado in 1972.

    I remember when the Gap curtain was put in place. It only lasted a night. But 22 year old Eastern me was standing next to a 50ish western Colorado hard hat with a buzz cut who just looked and said, "isn't that beautiful." Art has power. Christo's art had more than most.
