I’ve seen some pretty unusual works of art in my life, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything quite like this: an entire wedding cake made out of pieces of a Claes Oldenburg sculpture.
I spotted this wonderful object while on a tour of the Frederick R. Weisman Art Foundation in Beverly Hills, and admit it does look like an elaborate, slightly lumpy white wedding cake. Look closer though, and you can see the obvious seams. This isn’t one sculpture carved to look like a cake — it is a cake assembled from individual slices of one of Oldenburg’s most delightfully unconventional works, Wedding Souvenir, created in 1966.
A wedding ring makes a promise most jewelry never has to keep: to be worn every single day, through dishes and gym sessions and gardening and everything in between, for decades. That’s a genuinely different engineering problem than a piece saved for special occasions.
