Sweden’s minister of culture, Lena Adelsohn Liljeroth, has come under fire for attending a party at the museum featuring a large cake depicting a naked African woman. An actor in minstrel-style blackface served as the cake’s head and screamed in mock pain while guests carved slices from the pastry’s nude torso, videos from the event showed. The cake was reportedly meant to highlight the issue of female circumcision, Sweden’s English-language newspaper The Local reported.

Liljeroth, well-known in Sweden for fighting against racism, downplayed the incident, saying her appearance at the event was merely ceremonial.

“I understand quite well that this is provocative and that it was a rather bizarre situation,” she said. “I was invited to speak at World Art Day about art’s freedom and the right to provoke. And then they wanted me to cut the cake.”
