The Gates celebrates a recently lost giant—the artist Christo, by documenting the remarkable site-specific installation that he and his wife and partner, Jeanne-Claudes (who died in 2009) created in Central Park for a brief period in 2005. The film captures the birth of a work of public art at a moment when our notions of the public are being redefined and art feels elusive and far from our daily lives.
