I think honest people, when we are not good enough at something, should pick another job and move on. That's how things are.

Instead, they hired an artiste/provocateur. He did the work that he is best at: he got the museum all over the international news, bringing significantly more value to the institution than if he had satisfied their small-minded request that he remake a previous work with insignificant changes. Talk about bringing value to the organization; this guy is more effective than most CEOs I've known.
I lived for almost 12 years in Asia, mostly in Vietnam, but also in Singapore. Seriously, the concept of miserable that we have in Europe has become (at least according to my perception) something like "I do not like it, so it is ok to go get the money from a museum, to get social helps, to blame the politicians about the labor market... whatever". I think that is not honest at all most of the time.
The average local in Vietnam lives in much harder conditions actually. I do not mean we should live like them. But be aware that most people in the world live like Vietnamese, not like Danish, in average.
