The Rube says three things about Art: "it was [hesitation] o.k."; "it was pretty neat"; "it was really neat". To this piece he says #3.

The picture's scale may be misleading: the central figure, "Mr. Pointy", is thirty feet tall (though that's counting the point on his head which you can't see here), and the black balloons flanking his head are 60' off the ground (though that's counting the fact they are over the skating rink).

This exhibition opens today at Rockefeller Center and continues through October 12th.

This page requires a 6.0+ browser for the pictures/text to display correctly. If you have an older version of Netscape, Explorer, or AOL, the text will appear cut off and the pictures distorted.

Site Tips: If you have Explorer or AOL (recent version), and a mouse with a scroll wheel, you should be able to move the mouse anywhere over the text at right and scroll it with the wheel, so you can still see the picture while reading.

Most of the pages have a large version of the main picture which you can make your wallpaper by first clicking on it to download, then right-clicking and choosing "Set as Background".
