The MET - Osmosis

They watch the art. But who watches what the art does to them?

No one spends more time around the world’s most famous artwork than the security guards who protect it. But did you know many of those security guards are artists themselves?

AN ART EXHIBITION BY 15 GUARDS FROM NEW YORK CITY'S MOST ACCLAIMED MUSEUMS.

We brought guards from The Met, Noguchi, Guggenheim, Frick Collection, and Brooklyn Museum together at Art Cake Brooklyn for a first-of-its-kind exhibition. Each artist was given complete flexibility in the piece and medium they wanted to exhibit, so long as—in the true spirit of “osmosis”—it connected back to the art they guard in their respective museum.
