I just saw the latest Christo installation, The London Mastaba, a floating sculpture made from 7,506 barrels, on view on the Serpentine Lake in London until the end of September. Christo has been using barrels as a medium since the 1960s, in projects both conceived and realized, as seen in the accompanying exhibition. This work is twenty meters high, all bright pinks, reds, and purples, and is striking. — Pavia, CEO
