From what I understand from the article, the museum gave him physical cash in which to use as the medium, along with money to pay for his labor (more that two times the quoted value, as well). In all, he received ~28 times the amount of money quoted. Pretty scummy thing to do, even if "provocative."
- pavel_lishin 5y agoHe has until January to return it. Although he broke the terms of the contract, the museum seems happy enough with the results so far - so long as he actually returns the money, it sounds like everything will be fine and non-scummy. > The artist now faces a deadline to give the museum its money back on Jan. 16, when the work exhibition closes. The museum says it's talking with him about that deadline
- tokai 5y agoWell he has said that he won't return them at the deadline. But I guess he has to say that for now.
- ASalazarMX 5y agoI have a hard time believing this happened as the museum describes, because everyone will know this man has a large sum of cash sitting in his home/shop for three months. There had to be preparations to keep the money safe during the exhibition.
