Christo in Abu Dhabi
THE MASTABA
This could be the grandest of all of Christo's projects ever complete. This massive ziggurat looking structure is actually composed of 440k oil barrels painted in various shades of yellow, orange, and red. The structure when complete will be taller than the Great Pyramids of Egypt. This project is a hilarious identity for the oil rich country of UAE and the city of Abu Dhabi.

This would really be an awesome looking project if it is finished. Worth the wait for this one.

That really is unique considering that most of the projects being made in there are hotels, mansion,houses,museums, and other real estate building.
