Sculpture Cakes

I feel these brightly colored sculptures displayed throughout the community would add great whimsies to the exhibition. As the name suggests, they appear to be large cakes set up on the landscape. When exhibited in the past, the viewers have found them to be very humorous and eye popping.

A graduate of the School of Dayton Art Institute, Wright State University, and Washington University, Mark Grote has been the Professor of Sculpture at Loyola University since 1999. With over twenty years of experience teaching at institutions as varied as Loyola and the University of Plymouth at Exeter, Grote is as committed to training the next generation of artists as he is to expressing his creative vision through his sculptures. This past year was especially busy for Grote, with exhibitions at Tulane University, East Tennessee State, Converse College, and the University of North Carolina, including his Is it S or is it Z sculpture series.
