Issue 4: Christo and Jeanne-Claude

Middle Plane Issue No. 4 is a collaboration between Middle Plane and the estate of the artists Christo and Jeanne-Claude, in celebration of their lasting legacy and impact on the creative landscape.

The issue reads as a posthumous visual interview made up of photo series and works by different creatives in response to Christo and Jeanne-Claude’s artistry. Techniques such as wrapping, draping, color blocking, and experimentation with scale are employed by our contributing artists.

Contributors: Duane Michals, Camille Waddington, Takashi Homma, Wolfgang Volz, Jack Day, Yohji Yamamoto by William Waterworth and Hannes Hetta, Ilya Lipkin, Chanel beauty story by Thom Walker, Suffo Moncloa, Kenzo by Jet Swan and Agata Belcen, Nigel Shafran, and more.

This issue also features contributions from several international galleries including Maureen Paley, Michael Werner Gallery, and Sadie Coles.

Middle Plane is a bi-annual magazine that explores the relationship between art and fashion through the work of a single artist on each issue. With contributions by different creatives, the results are unpredictable, critical and eerie.
