'''The Incident:''' Ferragamo commissioned Jenkins and several other artists to create art inspired by objects in their 5th Avenue store.  Jenkins chose a pair of red baby shoes called the "Audrey" shoes.  Coincidently, her daughter's name is also Audrey.  The piece was part of the store's "Sweet and Sour" exhibition, which promised "a fashionable exhibition of provacative paradoxes."  When Ferragamo recieved a complaint, calling Jenkins's work "Tasteless," they pulled it from the exhibit. <P>
