Jens Haaning
Jens Haaning (born 1965) is a Danish conceptual, contemporary artist living and working in Copenhagen. His subject matter includes changing society in the West, power and communication in the global society, migration, displacement, nationalism, and human coexistence. In 2021, Haaning was lent $84,000 to create pieces for KUNSTEN Museum of Modern Art Aalborg in Denmark, to recreate two earlier works. Haaning was originally supposed to recreate two pieces from 2007 and 2010 that used real cash affixed to canvases to show the average annual income of Danes and Austrians, respectively. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jens_Haaning
