Wow!! That is amazing so many red Ferraris. It a large scale master piece. I would have loved to be there when no one was around. All the people in the pictures distroyed them. It would have been so cool to see the never-ending line of Ferraris.

On a side note does anyone remember what a large piece of art is called. Like when an artist covers the entire face of a mountain with ribbon. There's a special term for it, but I forgot it.
These beautiful red cars remind me of that kind of art.

Look! It's the street version, of the race version, of the Modena!

Could you imagine the insurance cost of someone tossing $10 in loose nickels into the air over that parking lot?

Do you mean like the artist Christo? He was an environmental/earth artist that did these wacky installations all over the world: wrapping buildings, islands etc.

Yes that's exactly what I mean. Isn't there a special name for that kind of art?

No that was Marko Everistti (did a search). Christo generally stuck to white plastic............made him famous.

I've only heard them referred to as "installations" or "enviroart". I'm sure there is another name for it though.
