Olympia gallery in NYC hosts CAKE, a one-night dessert exhibition featuring 33 artists. Attendees, with tickets priced at $45, enjoy sweets and a performance art experience. Inspired by the Last Supper, the event explores themes of impermanence and community, as beautifully crafted desserts symbolize fleeting moments of joy. With music and drinks to accompany the event, CAKE reflects the gallery's vision of art as both participatory and ephemeral in nature. Proceeds support the small art dealer, showcasing the intersection of culinary arts and creative expression.
In a time when access, abundance and care are increasingly stratified, CAKE embraces the idea that some beautiful things are meant to disappear.
Rossi adds that another inspiration definitely is Last Supper, referencing the Biblical scene... Coincidentally, the exhibition will feature 33 artists, matching the purported age of Jesus Christ at that Last Supper.
