Second movie:” Running Fence” by Christo and Jeanne-Claude

Running fence is a documentary set in united stats; the idea was to follow Christo and his wife Jeanne Claude on their adventure of installing their art piece by the name of " Running Fence". It crossed fourteen roads and the town of Valley Ford, leaving passage for cars, cattle and wildlife, and it was designed to be view, in Sonoma and Marin Counties.

The idea behind the task was to get the people of the land that the fence crossed together. Fence was made out of fabric and grounded by poles. The fence went through fields and farmlands of many locals and for them to do that, they had to take permission from these locals to build the fence across their lands. It took them around four years to prepare, and it only lasted 14 days before it got removed.

 After the project was over, they made an exhibition displaying pictures of their project and their piece of art across the lands and the ranchers of those lands traveled far to that exhibition just to see what they were a part of.

 In my opinion, having such projects and such installations, at the beginning no one appreciate it, and people feel that there is no reason behind it, and it’s just a waste of time and money! But in the end, after seeing the results, as a graphic designer, I was amazing work. After accomplishing this huge fence. It might brought some destruction or people did not like it, but I am sure at the end they got something superior or a great memory after it was established.
