The Gates of Central Park - Art as Project, Project as Art -- Over on my Unfocused personal blog, I've been moved to write about a project culminating today in New York. While writing about the art of it, I realized that such monumental efforts are as much about the project as the product. The artists talk about passion necessary to get them through their efforts. That passion comes from making a pre-visualized ideal as real as possible. It's that passion that is both the provider and the product of a successful project.
