The Emerging Artist Fellowship Exhibition opened at Socrates Park in New York this month. One of the standout pieces was the colossal cake sculpture designed by Aaron King.
Titled “Untitled (Someone Left the Cake Out in the Rain)”, Mr. King had the audacity to put up warnings such as “Do Not Step” and “No Climbing.” We appreciate the shout-out to MacArthur Park, but the warnings are a bit of a joke.
