The article revisits Christo and Jeanne-Claude's iconic 1983 "Surrounded Islands" project in Miami's Biscayne Bay, where they wrapped 11 small islands in hot pink plastic. It describes how the spectacle drew global attention and marked a turning point for Miami, which was then struggling with crime and a negative image. The piece also notes that the couple's work is being seen again in Florida, New York, and Germany, with a related exhibition at NSU Art Museum Fort Lauderdale.
