Last year, two Russian artists, Leonid Tishkov and Boris Bendikov created an "illuminating" art show by creating large light sculptures of a quarter moon, and suggesting, somewhat tongue in cheek, that these could become one's "personal moons," to bring home and place where ever one needed one.
Of course, the internet being what it is, folks saw the headlines "Personal Moons," and then everybody wanted one! (Including me.) Sadly, they are not available -- but they sure are pretty, and very surreal. Here are more photos , including some of "personal stars" too so your moon won't get lonely.
And speaking of owning moons...there is a lovely story I would like to recommend in the JoMA Fiction archives entitled, "The Man Who Owned the Moon," by Celia Bell.
