"Hanging those sheets over the river"
Some food for thought...
The article below really provides some food for thought (at least, I think so...). I'm curious as to what you all think. Do you think there is ever a time that art may be a "bad thing"? I'm curious as to what type of questions this article prompted from you all and what your thoughts are about this impressive, invasive installation plan.

Leave your thoughts in the comment section.
Is it ethical?
Can "nature" be used as a medium?
It is art?
Do you like it?
Would you go see it?
Should he stick to just wrapping buildings?
Judge Approves Christo’s
Controversial Colorado Project

On Friday, a Federal District Court upheld the Bureau of Land Management’s (BLM) decision to allow the environmental artist to install 5.9 miles of silver fabric above the Arkansas River, The Pueblo Chieftain reported.
