The Gates
Central Park New York 1979- 2005
Christo and Jeanne-Claude
In January of 2003 after 25 years of courting New York City officials, artists Christo and Jeanne-Claude  obtained permission from current mayor Michael Bloomberg to install their latest art creation, The Gates: A Project for New York. The exhibit consists of a series of 7,500 16-ft gates bearing saffron-colored panels that will drape in a river-like succession. "The Gates" will be placed at 12-ft intervals along 23 miles of foot paths throughout New York City's Central Park. In keeping with their artistic style of producing art that replicates the forms of nature and architecture.
