Bread as Art at Grandaisy
For a retrospective on artist Vaginal Davis at MoMA PS1, Grandaisy bakery recreated monumental bread sculptures from a 2012 gallery show.
The bakery's owner, Monica Von Thun Calderón, mentioned their contribution to the art installation, where Vaginal Davis created her original bread sculptures with head baker Julio Guarchaj in 2012.
For the current PS1 show, the pair recreated "Timberlake" and "Mariah", originally shown at Participant gallery, baking them in late September in Tribeca for the October 9 show opening.
