Christo and Jeanne Claude "The Gates" | video by space ink

[DocHey1958]

I appreciate this video because I was not able to visit NYC to see the installation. I don't understand all of the hostility expressed toward this video and the artwork it shows. How does it harm all of these commenters that these people create the work and the video? No one makes you view the art OR the video. If you aren't interested, ignore it.

they are crazy, all they do is wrap crap. Why are they so famous for something so stuipd. and what do they do with the fabric after there done? do they recycle it? do they donate it so people can use it for something good and useful? All i see is waste of materials. Think people come on hes nothin but a big waste.

[HangMansJury6]

the fact that i wasted 5 minutes and seconds of my life on this is not grey at all

It looks like it was made from what was left of the Rifle Gap curtain.

Nick Drake - From The Morning

[AzraelDKF]

Yeah, this ......if I took video of a homeless guy taking a turd in the park and submitted it as "art", people would agree that it was art

[beenn15]

@AzraelDKF you can't submit anything as art. But you're right... Art is about how you see things... An exposition like this might be ridiculous to some and wonderful to others... it's all in the eye of the beholder.

[loom1221]

what i see is waste. Yeah lets cover a building in fabic and call it art. Jack ass's modern and contempary art can kiss my ass this is not art this is wate of materials.

[MillaVanilla5]

[therealallpro]

[aaburger85]

This is retarded.

Rest in peace, Jean-Claude! She and Christo had a beautiful partnership.

I think this is an excellent video. This comes the closest to conveying what the experience was all about. It was all about moving underneath them. I particularly loved it in the snow.

If I could make a suggest----I think you should remake this video with different sound because that is the only flaw. The sound is bad and the noise of the rollerblades detracts from the experience. I would suggest recording the sounds of central park --just city noise and wind etc and dubbing over the video.

They should have called it Car Wash.
