Fart is short for funny-art and this is such a good fart. The latest big 'art' piece in NYC is a barge filled with trees called 'Floating Island' driving around the island of Manhattan. Paid for by the Whitney (the museum not the crack-ho-diva) so obviously to be taken seriously. However, some crazy wags thought it would be fun to follow the barge with a much smaller boat on which they'd erected a replica of one of those orange gates that Christo put up in Central Park last winter. The little boat with the orange gate on it was also towing an even smaller boat in which a man sat filming the chase on a video camera. I expect that video tape to be next years 'must-see' event when it is projected onto the thighs of Paris Hilton as she opens and closes her legs in an installation called 'I'll Fuck For Drugs' at the Guggenheim.
