Christo & Jeanne-Claude Over The River

The next project by Christo and Wife is to suspend some sort of a tent over parts of Colorado River. I am one of those who, while finding the artwork worthy of at least a glance, consistently fail to see what is the big message or deal in these huge installations. I go with the underlying understanding that the difference between Art and Craft is that the former has a message and the latter does not. Although, it is true that just because I do not see Christo's message, it does not mean that it does not exist. As Secretary Rumsfeld has put it: "The absence of presence doesn't mean presence of absence."
