"Mastaba" promises to be the largest sculpture in the world. On the construction of a 150-meter construction of 410,000 barrels of oil will need $ 340 million, and about 30 months of work. The ruling dynasty of the UAE had already agreed to th

Artist Christo Yavashev planned to build in the desert of the Arabian Peninsula, the world's largest sculpture. "Mastaba" is located in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi (UAE) and look like a complex polyhedron assembled from 410,000 barrels from the oil. The sculpture will reach 150 meters: it is above St. Peter's Basilica at the Vatican, St. Paul's Cathedral in London, and even the pyramids of Giza. (Mastaba (Arabic mastaba - «bench") - Late in the Arabic name of the ancient Egyptian burial in a rectangular building with sloping walls Arabs who came to Egypt at the beginning of VII century, these buildings seem similar to the bench, hence the name. - AI.) Author stresses that it "Mastaba" - is not burial structure. Christo inspired not pharaohs, and the shape of the ancient earthen benches.
Bulgarian-American artist Christo famous projects created in collaboration with his wife, the late Jeanne-Claude de Giyebon. Together they created the technique of "amballyazha" - wrapping the fabric of large objects (buildings, bridges, natural objects). Jeanne-Claude died in 2009, but her husband decided to continue the work. Especially in his left a lot of unrealized projects. For example, "Mastaba" was invented 30 years ago, but the Iran-Iraq war of the 1980s for long delayed the project. Now Christ has decided to return to this idea, because the Gulf states now, more than ever, are active in promoting contemporary art. So, in Abu Dhabi, plans to open a branch soon Louvre, the Guggenheim Museum and the Zayed National Museum, designed by architect Norman Foster. Future position of sculptures Christo and Jeanne-Claude was defined Liwa Oasis - one of the most picturesque in the UAE.
the erection of "Mastaba" require about $ 340 million. The money will be received from the sale of the artist and his collaboration with Jeanne-Claude (the price of which the art market sometimes comes to $ 10 million) and various investors. Unknown, does the number of members of the ruling dynasty investors UAE, but Christ said that the implementation of the project is assisted by the elder brother of the Emir of Abu Dhabi, Sheikh Hamdan bin Zayed Al Nahyan (Hamdan bin Zayed al-Nahyan). Official permission from the members of the ruling dynasty was received, and they are now looking forward to the appearance of "Mastaba" (approximate date of Completion - 2015).
Christ emphasized that the use of oil barrels as the main building material for the "Mastaba" in no way is an allusion to the main source of wealth UAE. He'd used these barrels for installation - for example, for the "Iron Curtain" in Paris in the 1960s. The "Mastaba" not some political or economic implications, it is rather a tribute to traditional Islamic architecture. Barrels will be painted in different colors to create the faces of the trapezoidal structure fanciful mosaic patterns.
