Christo in NYT
I don't get Christo. Never have. Probably never will. Wrapped Reichstag, Running Fence, Surrounded Islands, Wrapped Kunsthalle, Wrapped Monuments. Now the Gates.
I secretly suspect that it's all one big joke on the installation, the public, and the thousands of volunteers who help put these things together.
Or maybe I get it a little too well.
Update
Roger adds that the Christo doesn't take volunteers while NYC does. A distinction made more confusing by news articles that mention paid volunteers.
