The Gates
New! Artists Christo and Jeanne-Claude are renowned for their incredible and dramatic art projects in important settings around the world. From The Umbrellas in Japan and the U.S., to The Pont-Neuf Wrapped and Wrapped Reichstag, their work has always been imaginative and unforgettable. On January 22, 2003, New York City gave permission to Christo and Jeanne-Claude to realize their temporary work of art, The Gates. In March 2005, they will erect 7,500 "gates" in Central Park. These 16-foot-high structures, draped with saffron-colored fabric, will traverse the park, creating rivers of orange in a glorious spectacle of public art. " The calendar is a beautiful souvenir of this unprecedented event, perfect for art enthusiasts and anyone who loves New York. " Includes an oversized pull-out poster. " Photographs from the actual event will be the principal images in the calendar.
