Christo's "The Gates:" Take Two
I put an on-line "photo album" up about "The Gates" installation in Central Park. Check it out.
You still have today, Saturday, and Sunday to experience them in person:
- preposterous, insane, magical, joyous—brings out the child in every visitor (even the cops)
- human-scale and monumental-scale at the same time
- would not work with fewer Gates, would not work in a different color—whatever else one thinks about Christo & Jeanne Claude, they got this precisely right
- evanescent: Hard to believe they actually appeared, and harder to believe they'll be gone shortly.
"Once upon a time, 'The Gates' were in Central Park...."
