«This is how Roman Abramovich's superyacht» was sunk for the sake of art. As conceived by author Jeremy Deller, the 115-meter Luna is being reclaimed by 19th-century artist and poet William Morris. What's it all about? « Well, it's about power and art," Jeremy argues. - Who is the power with? With Abramovich or with Morris? Will we know about Abramovich 50 years from now? But we already know for sure about Morris...». Wecan say that Roman Arkadyevich's name has definitely entered the history of the yachtingindustry.

By the way, Luna was punished for being berthed a couple of years ago, blocking the artist's view of the sea. It was a trivial thing to do.
