Peter Anton Making Much-Anticipated Return To Miami Art Week

Artist Peter Anton, who is best known for his larger-than-life hyper-realistic food sculptures, and who made headlines for his 2012 Miami Art Week installation, SUGAR & GOMORRAH, which allowed spectators to ride a roller coaster through an exhibition of his sugar sculptures, nude models, and ruins of a destroyed city, will be making his much-anticipated return to Miami Art Week.

Anton will return for the 29th edition of Art Miami, with CHOCO TOWER, a monumental sculpture of five chocolates stacked on top of each other, with two of the candies decadently half-eaten. 

CHOCO TOWER, pictured below and made from painted aluminum, will be the star of Stuttgart-based Galerie von Braunbehrens’s booth, towering over visitors at 10 feet tall and weighing over 1,000 pounds. 

CHOCO TOWER is part of an edition of three unique works, each painted in different colors. They were created at the world-renowned Foundry of Polich Tallix.
