Description"For the Love of Two Oranges” is a vibrant minimalist sculpture by former CMU professor Clark Winter, created in 1969 and installed on campus in 1972. Made of four bold orange steel blocks, it playfully explores shape and space while radiating a cheerful, whimsical energy. After years of weathering, the sculpture was restored in 2020 and relocated near the Fifth Neville Apartments in 2021 — where it has become fully embraced and affectionately known by residents as “the Cheeto."
