RE:

As you know the installation is temporary, but please know that it was fully endorsed by Richard Rhodes who always intended that the space be animated by other artists. Rhodes is thrilled by this current installation and will present a public program at the museum on Sunday afternoon April 9^th.

I like the floats.  I feel that the trees (floats) actually call attention to the forest (wave).  It is my understanding that Richard Rhodes gave permission for the installation, so there is no controversy there.  To my eye the tension of the floats on the slopes is wonderful.  My mind sees them move, by the suggestion.  I believe we need to be shook up now and then.   Other works in the museum exhibitions have done it, why not this one?
