Christo Event — Page 4

Orange as a color in general doesn't annoy me. It's the shape of this piece (these pieces?) that makes it look, in conjunction with the orange, like the park is under construction.

don't forget the 4 story orange curtain hanging in the Time Warner Building. Now THAT'S cool.

IN the building lobby.

I thought this installation was horrible. I agree with Rathnait that it made the park look like a construction zone. Waste of time and taxpayer dollars.

However, someone I know viewed it from an apartment high above the park and said it was spectacular.

---

not too familiar with the part at all. I'm coming from midtown

Thanks, I'm going to see what the fuss is about. ALl I keep hearing about is the gates, the gates. I finally broke down and asked someone what they were. When I was watching Regis, he was all "I don't get the Gates". That statement is why I love regis. :)

thanks, i'll read those articles before i go.

it's a little....iffy? i don't know if that's the right word. i don't know if i agree with it - this is, after all, the same pair who wrapped the reichstag in silver fabric and some island in pink fabric.

it does seem a little like a ploy for money, especially since he's doing drawings of it and selling them for up to $800,000. but they are paying for it themselves, or so they say. i don't know, i guess i'm just kind of skeptical about the whole thing. maybe i have the right idea, but then again, maybe i just don't get art.

i think it might be the latter.

"So he spent the whole rest of the show making fun of them and it was hilarious. He was talking about something else and he was like "At least it's not highway construction cone orange. No, I'm sorry, SAFFRON." "

HAH! I wish I'd seen that.

Ah, Davey, Davey, Davey. Sometimes he can actually be funny.
