    Cool

    Nice pics-

    being a Swamp-Yankee Cave-Man type, I'll ask-

    is that for something?
    like maybe Chinese New Year...........

    or is it someone's art thing?

    as always-
    please forgive my ignorance
    ..........
    Edit- windy-do they sound cool?

    Christo & his wife Jeanne Claude are artists. here are a few facts:

    The Gates is the largest artwork since the Sphinx.

    "The Gates," as they are called, will be festooned with saffron-colored fabric panels and will line 23 miles of pedestrian paths from Feb. 12 to 27. They are being made in Queens and are nearly finished. The artists say they have been working on the project for 20 years.

    Guided trolley and walking tours will be offered, and the Metropolitan Museum will open its roof to visitors for the first time during the winter.
    Christo's Gates Facts

    * The Gates will unfurl on the morning of 12 February 2005
    * The removal of the gates will begin on 28 February 2005
    * There are no opening ceremonies or events planned by the artists
    * There are 7,500 gates
