16、w of the abstract artworks that have recently sold for surprising amounts. Now, Dutch artist Jens Haaning has taken the genre to a whole new level. His appropriately named “TAKE THE MONEY AND RUN” masterpiece, consisting of two empty frames, has set a local museum back $84 000!Earlier this year, the

17、 Kunsten Museum in Aalborg appointed Haaning to create two pieces for their coming “Work It Out” exhibit. According to their written agreement, the artist would use the $84 000 lent to him by the museum to reproduce two of his previous artworks about labor. The first, An Arerage Austrian Year Income

18、, displayed euro bills on a canvas (画布) in a framework, while the second, focusing on Danish incomes, did the same using krone notes. But when the museum opened the boxes the artist sent before the exhibits opening on September 24, 2021, they found two blank frameworks titled “TAKE THE MONEY AND RUN

19、”.The museum officials admit that Haanings artwork is unique.

20、ght, Andersson told Danish radio. “But that is not the agreement we had.”However, Haaning thinks his artwork is perfect for the exhibit, which examines the relationship between art and labor.

21、 He says the museums $2 300 pay for the artworks was not even enough to cover his costs. “The work is that I have taken their money,” he told Danish radio. “Its not theft.

24、 to becoming a reality. Now, California-based Orbital Assembly Corporation (OAC) expects a chance for visitors to extend their “out-of-the-world” experience by checking into a grand hotel in low Earth orbit.The 650-foot-wide Ferris-wheel-like Voyager Space Station (VSS) will consist of two rings. Th

25、e inner circle will be fitted with spacecraft stations for guests. The outer ring will house the rooms. Restaurants, bars, gyms, and scientific research labs. The solar-powered hotel will spin at speeds high enough to create artificial gravity. ensuring (确保) occupants a comfortable stay, OAC hopes t

26、o attract not just tourists but also scientists and astronauts on long-distance missions.While the idea is attractive, making VSS a reality will take time. The team is currently building modules (舱室) for a smaller model ring. The modules will be set up in zero-gravity using semi-automatic robotic to

27、ols made for the purpose. Once they are completed, OAC engineers will attempt to create artificial gravity similar to what Mars has.Even if the model is wildly successful, transporting the VSS modules to space will cost tens of billions of dollars. However, OAC, which expects to charge $5 million pe

28、r person for each 3-day stay, is confident they will take back the expense. Though the cost may seem too much, it is cheap compared to the $55 million it costs to stay on the International Space Station (ISS).Visitors will also be able to participate in amusing activities that are not possible on Ea

29、rth. Among the planned ideas are zero gravity basketball games. Blincow says, “When you jump in the air, you jump five times higher.” Also under consideration are spacewalks to allow visitors to enjoy clear views of Earth and space. If everything goes according to plan, the company plans to start co
