Description

For the 20th anniversary of The Gates, this two-part exhibit explores that landmark exhibit and provides a look into the other large-scale projects that Christo and Jeanne-Claude planned. The first section of the exhibition, dedicated to The Gates, includes original artworks by Christo, components from the Central Park installation and a virtual journey through the project's development. The second part features models and digital reproductions that showcase the creative process behind the large-scale projects that did not come to fruition. The exhibition has a digital AR component, available through Bloomberg Connects, that allows visitors to Central Park to virtually experience some of the original Gates work.
