Reichstag im Negligé (stills)

Jef Lambrecht made an extensive video-reportage on the wrapping of the Reichstag in 1995 – not only the work itself but also the surroundings, the atmosphere and various views of the area, then still a barren post-wall 'area of potentiatities' – as well as most of the press conference with Christo & Jeanne-Claude.
