ART OF THE DAY
This is Jonathan Borofsky’s “Walking to the Sky,” on exhibit at Rockefeller Center until Oct. 18. Several figures, including a businesswoman, a grandmother, and a child, ascend the 80-foot-pole. The artist says he didn’t have Sept. 11 in mind when he created it, but rather childhood memories of stories his father told him about walking to the sky to meet a friendly giant.
Can’t imagine that NYC residents can view the piece in any way other than the Sept. 11 context. In any case, Borofsky’s work really struck a chord with me this morning. Deeply moving, isn’t it?
