Wetzlar Camera Auctions - Leica M4 Christo "Wrapped Leica" - October 12th 2024
Leica M4 Christo "Wrapped Leica“, 1970/1994 - the German Leica photographer Wolfgang Volz officially accompanied the Christo + Jeanne Claude projects. In the almost 50-year collaboration, not only the photographic documentations of the projects were created, but photography also became an integral part of them. On the occasion of Wolfgang Volz's birthday on January 17th 1994, his Leica M4 itself became a wrapping object - as a gift from Christo to “his” highly valued photographer. Up until then, a number of documentations of Christo projects had been created with this camera. Some time before the wrapping, Wolfgang Volz had redesigned the originally silver chrome-plated Leica M4 into red/blue - through the wrapping foil, signed by Christo, with the original cord fastening, the red/blue Leica M4 appears impressively mystic and beautiful - offered for sale in our upcoming auction on October 12th 2024 in Wetzlar!
