House I is in the Sculpture Garden of The National Gallery of Art, in The Mall, Washington D.C., USA. I walked to and fro and around it to disclose how the visual illusion was constructed. For Escher lovers too. (Since 7/7/2010 sound track "Hendrix" by Helen Money).

    YouTube says:

    "You can't save changes to this video because it has received too many views."

    So adding other or removing the sound (which I preferred) is impossible!

    ¡Disculpe!

  • you very clearly walked behind the chain you weren't supposed to go behind... very disrespectful of the art and of the city of DC.

  • I respect that work of art, so that's why I disrespected the city of Washington D.C. somewhat on this cold and rainy day to see the house from all directions, or do you believe that that chain was a part of mr. Lichtenstein's work?! HS

  • If you respected the work of art, you wouldn't be encouraging people to step over the chain, therefore ruining the setting. Do you think people want to see you walking around it? No. Do you think "Mr. Lichtenstein" would have wanted that? No, it was entitled "House I", not "House and some guy with a camera wandering around". Furthermore, the more people feel it is okay cross the chain, the sooner people are going to start vandalizing it, littering around it, etc.

  • I think we have a different attitude to life: you seem to be of the kind that stops even before a red traffic light at 3 o'clock at night in a completely empty village street unlike Mr. Lichtenstein (I presume, him being an artist) or myself. Came from Europe to see this and wanted to see the backside of the moon too. Curiosity is the beginning of all knowledge. There are other more decent pictures of this house (again no capital!) on YT, so go and see those and stop being grumpy. Thank U!

  • kien lo filmo??

  • Yo lo filmo (as the answer is in Spanish I guess).

    I filmed it with a Sony Ericsson K800i cell phone.
