The Floating Piers is a temporary public art installation by artists Christo and Jeanne-Claude currently on display at Italy’s Lake Iseo.

For sixteen days – June 18 through July 3, 2016 (weather permitting) – Italy’s Lake Iseo is being reimagined. 100,000 square meters of shimmering yellow fabric, carried by a modular floating dock system of 220,000 high-density polyethylene cubes, undulate with the movement of the waves as The Floating Piers rise just above the surface of the water.
Many great images and all about the project at www.thefloatingpiers.com
