Danish artist who submitted blank canvases as ‘art’

Danish artist who submitted blank canvases as ‘art’ ordered to repay museum

https://gfy.com/newthread.php?do=newthread&f=26


In 2021 the Kunsten Museum of Modern Art in Aalborg, in Denmark’s Jutland region, loaned Haaning the money to create updated versions of two earlier works — frames filled with banknotes depicting the average annual salaries of an Austrian and a Dane — for an exhibition on the future of labor. Instead, the artist sent the museum two empty frames entitled “Take the Money and Run,” saying he had created new, “better” pieces to fit the exhibition’s theme.
