About The Artwork

Allied Chemical Tower, Packed, Project for Number 1, Times Square, New York is an offset lithograph on Rives BFK and Special Arjomari paper from the "(Some) Not Realized Projects" portfolio published in 1971. This work represents Christo and Jeanne-Claude's conceptual vision for transforming the iconic Allied Chemical Tower in Times Square through their signature wrapping technique.

The lithograph beautifully captures the artists' ambitious plan for this unrealized installation, showcasing their revolutionary approach to environmental art and architectural interventions. The portfolio documents several of the artists' unrealized conceptual projects, preserving their visionary ideas that, due to various constraints, were never brought to physical fruition.
