    a documentary which is one

    It is a Documentary on 'The Floating Piers' project by Christo -- his first public project after Christo's wife Jeanne-Claude had died.

    In Land-Art terms, art curator's speak, the Floating Piers were an 'on-site' installation attracting a great many visitors -- on opening day alone some 270,000 visitors : And that did cause massive problems : too many people. That is an issue the documentary details, tells about without judgment, without commenting, how Christo and his crew had to deal with it, how it all came about from first design/layout steps till de-installation.

    It's a documentary that provides neither interpretation nor big-headed, hyper-intellectual sounding phrases about art, Christo, or the work -- the transitory on-site LandArt -- itself.

    Highly recommended. Quite refreshing -- a must for an Christo fan and/or LandArt enthusiast.

    scapes me how this could be categorized as 'Comedy', or 'Adventure' it's neither

    Not really art to me but interesting.

    First of all I don't concider a floating bridge as art, not even if they decorate it with a colorful ground layer. But I can understand if people find this art, everyone is entitled to his opinion and what is art for someone is something else for somebody else. I certainly do not understand why anybody in his right mind would pay more than 2 million for a big piece or 250000 dollars for a tiny piece of that art. But again everybody does whatever they like to and if you're swimming in money be my guest. That said I did enjoy watching this documentary about Christo and his Floating Piers. It was sometimes laughable to watch how they all stressed about their project, and I do enjoy watching people bickering about futile things. And that you get a lot in this documentary as most of those people are impossible to live with. Their constant annoying arguing is funny to watch on a big screen, not so sure if I could stand to talk with them in real life for more than ten minutes though. The documentary is well shot, it's interesting even if you're not really a fan like I wasn't. They can tell me I don't understand the art, or the concept, it doesn't really matter, it's still funny to watch just to study human behavior. Christo is definitely excentric, impossible to work with, arrogant to a level he becomes annoying but still fun to watch. Fun to watch also was the "elite" of rich people, the "special" guests that were sucking up to him, doing anything to have a micro second of a conversation with the artist. Those were probably the people that bought his work for those astonishing high sums, pretty pathetic but again funny to watch. In conclusion, it's worth a watch, it's well made, it's interesting.
