The wrapping of the Pont Neuf didn't cost anything to the Parisians.<BR/><BR/>The Xmas lights and decorations are often funded by local commerces, which is the case of rue Montorgueil. So these are paid for by the local shoppers.<BR/><BR/>JM-Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-1134736404599353182005-12-16T13:33:00.000+01:002005-12-16T13:33:00.000+01:00JM said... sab> Another thing that was quite impre...JM said... <BR/>sab> Another thing that was quite impressive was when Christo wrapped up the Pont Neuf... a sign that creativity is valued, even if it has a cost.<BR/><BR/>Yes, JM. At a cost, of course. A cost to the city of Paris. Which comes out of tax payers pockets. I was walking along the rue Montorgueil today, and they had the words "Rue Montorgueil" written in big bright lights above the street.<BR/><BR/>And I asked myself: is this worth it? Do I want to pay for this?<BR/><BR/>And as FredB and others have hinted at, yes, I do want to pay for this, among other things, such as giving every month to under-privileged children because I can, but also enjoying the feeling that we have an ostensible chance to transport ourselves, however superficially, away from the sometimes grim reality of our daily lives to another place, inhabited by fairies and genies like Eric who conjure up beautiful pictures for us every day, completely free of charge, to cheer us up, because he wants to and he can.Sabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17273148512437196010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-1134711077785985812005-12-16T06:31:00.000+01:002005-12-16T06:31:00.000+01:00Gee Eric, I never thought your wonderful photos wo...Gee Eric, I never thought your wonderful photos would spark such a debate over Christmas decorations.

The way it coloured up lots of the most famous buildings in its (failed) olympic bid was a good example. The Academie Francaise looked particularly spectacular all multicoloured with the Eiffel Tower in the distance.
