A Danish artist has been ordered to return nearly 500,000 kroner (€67,000) to a museum after he supplied it with two blank canvasses for a project he named “Take the Money and Run”.

    I really hate his justification because it seems incredibly selfish and short-sighted. Imagine if he murdered someone and said it wasn’t murder because it was art. It can be both, and society might also argue it is not art or should not normatively be art.

      I hate that he’s trying to pass it off as some heroic Robin Hood gesture. If anyone actually follows his advice they’re likely to get arrested.
