Bernini, Michaelangelo...Katrencik?

Here's a piece from the NY Post illustrating why modern art is so great. Maybe the Post mixed up their stories with The Onion.

Best line from the article:

"The connection between concrete and baked goods hasn't been lost on Emily Katrencik, a 30-year-old conceptual artist whose ongoing project consists of gnawing through a wall in the apartment of Louky Keijsers, owner of the LMAKprojects gallery in Chelsea...

Katrencik does this by eating through 1.956 inches a day. The project started on New Year's Day, and the hole in the wall is now big enough that she can stick her head through it."



I do wonder what her neighbors think...
