Pont Neuf
Jeanne-Claude became an American citizen in March 1984. The couple received permission to wrap the Pont Neuf, a bridge in Paris, in August and the wrapped the bridge in for two weeks in August 1985. "The Pont Neuf Wrapped" attracted three million visitors. Wrapping the Pont Neuf continued the tradition of transforming a sculptural dimension into a work of art. The fabric maintained the principal shapes of the "Pont Neuf" but it emphasized the details and the proportions. As with "Surrounded Islands," workers who assisted with the installation and deinstallation of "Pont Neuf Wrapped" wore uniforms designed by Willi Smith.
