拍品专文

"Now The Gates will be, ... one of the most exciting projects [...] the visibility of the project will be absolutely unbelievable. With these bare, naked, leafless trees, with this fire-quality color of the poles, will be unbelievable. When you go to the park you don't see where the faraway walkways are, you can also see them if people are walking on them. But if there are no people walking, you don't see the walkways. Imagine how it will be with our Gates, there will be views from far away because there will be no leaves."
(Christo, interview, New York City, July 25, 2003, in Christo & Jeanne-Claude: On the Way to the Gates, Central Park, New York City, ed. Jonathan Fineberg, New Haven: Yale University Press in association with the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, 2004, p. 186)
