Felix Gonzalez-Torres, Portrait of Ross 
This tribute/memorial/installation/masterpiece was made by the artist to commemorate his partner Ross who had died of AIDS.  The mountain of candy was designed and installed wherever the work is viewed so that as you pass you can take a piece. Its touching and chilling all at the same time.
