For two weeks in February 2005, Christo and Jeanne-Claude completely changed the way New Yorkers experienced walking in Central Park with The Gates. When seen from the buildings surrounding Central Park, The Gates seemed like a golden river appearing and disappearing through the bare branches of the trees and highlighting the shape of the meandering footpaths. We are thrilled to honor these artists at the Performa 2018 Gala on November 1, 2018. Photo by Wolfgang Volz.
