Christo is not known for doing things on a small scale and now he is undertaking a project 30 years in the making. The artist best known for wrapping the Reichstag in fabric, running 40 kilometers of nylon along the California coast and covering up Pont-Neuf Bridge in Paris, will create the worlds largest permanent sculpture in Abu Dhabi.
