There were some great art spoofs of it, too, like one person put mini gates all over her house and had her cats walking under them. There was one somehow related to ducks. People really got into it. Robin Schwalb works at the Met and got me a square of the fabric, and I was just thrilled. I drew one of the gates into the piece I was working on at the time.<br /><br />I love the art you made about the Gates and how you wrote about it. Carol, you running into the artists checking out their project is amazing. I'm so glad you both were there.<br /><br />Thanks a lot for the sweet art memories.

My ...Cheryl, I love your textile interpretation. <br /><br />My DH and I were there too! We got to the park early on the first day, about 7 am, and spent about an hour walking around, taking some photos. As we were nearing the pond, I stopped to tie my shoe. My husband tugged at my sleeve and pointed at two passers by--Christo and Jean-Claude herself, with body guards! They were seeing the exhibit open for the first time! We tagged along behind, as joggers called out kudos to them --Wonderful! Thank you! Jean Clude was more talkative, while Christo just took it in. <br /><br />It made the memorable experience even more memorable!Carol Soderlundhttp://www.carolsoderlund.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2361928362931005676.post-41671348143883489652011-03-26T10:51:35.546-04:002011-03-26T10:51:35.546-04:00Love how you used an artistic experience to create...Love how you used an artistic experience to create more art!YankeeQuilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03324287185970922332noreply@blogger.com
