Obligatory Gates Pic
So that they don't take my NYC passport away, here is my mandatory photo of Central Park's gates. Tomorrow I will follow this up with a photo exhibit entitled "Bird on the Gates," which will consist of of me holding up my middle finger at the gates, from a variety of angles.
(EDIT: Just for the record I actually do like the gates, and agree with what he says here. See my comments below)

jay, could you PLEASE explain to me what the hell is the big, fascinating deal with the gates? why are they important/mesmerizing/inspiring/wahatever? i don't get it, i'm sure i won't check them out and i'm very curious as to why everyone cares.

Yeah, what Noixe said: why the hate for the gates?

Ok ok, I get it, thou shalt not joke about the gates!
I pledge alliegance to the gates, and to the republic for which they stand. One nation, under saffron..
I like Christo and I actually like the gates, the gates are pretty cool. They're also one of the most heavily hyped, blogged and photographed events in NY history.
And yet people are still so protective of them in here, which I find kinda fascinating given NY's usual reverence of cynicism.

Guess I'll scrap posting those shots i took this afternoon on my site, LOL. Seriously though, the park was PACKED! Love 'em or hate 'em The Gates brought the people out.

Maybe it's just me, but.. I've seen so many photos of them now - and they still look pretty much like.. orange flags on posts. They don't even look like a gate, let alone many gates.
I might even venture to say that it's a case of the emperor's new clothes..
But hey, whatever works for the masses :)

16 days and a sense of urgency. appreciate the creative mind for its fleeting expressions. whether you like it or not, you heard about it and thought about it. it's just what the artists wanted.

I think the experience of seeing it in person, watching everyone gathering in the park and engaging with it, is a lot more fun than looking at the photos.. I don't know a lot about Christo (or art!) but I'd imagine that is intentional, that our interaction with the gates is as much a part of the show as the gates themselves.

I think that's exactly it and that you probably know a lot more about art than you're letting on to have that kind of insight about The Gates (and based on what you write on this site).
