Wrapped Floors and Covered Windows, Museum Würth, Kunzelsau, Germany, combines lithographic printmaking with collaged mixed media such as cloth, paper, and paint layered on paper board. Reversing the typical equation of covering windows with cloth and protecting floors with brown paper, Christo and Jeanne-Claude challenge our visual expectations and allow a sense of wonderment in our quotidian environments.
