Green Flags in The New York Times

To illustrate "The Greening of Geopolitics", Thomas Friedman's cover story for this past Sunday's New York Times Magazine, the Times commissioned 10 artists to design "green flags." Among the artists whose works are featured: Kiki Smith, Robert L. Lang, Carin Goldberg, and Casey Reas. Here are pictures of some of our favorites:

Ronan and Erwin Bouroullec's Flag

Robert L. Lang's Origami Flag (the Times site has a cool video showing how the flag was made)

An Homage to Rachel Carson by Carin Goldberg


Hope the New York Times posts a gallery of all ten flags soon. In the meantime, check out the slide show at the beginning of the Robert L. Lang video.
