The Wrapped Coast Project
Picturesque Little Bay, south of Sydney Australia was shook up in 1969 when Bulgarian born, New York based artist arrived with his wife and over a hundred workers and volunteers who brought 90.000 square meters of plastig fabric, 56 kilometers of polypropylane rope. They transformed the landscape into a gigantic work of art, by then the largest single artwork that was ever made. The artwork captured the attention of journalists around the world and it profoundly influenced the course of contemporary art in Australia.
