公众只要花一点点钱，就可以在纽约古根海姆博物馆使用纯金马桶如厕。
Members of the public are being invited to spend a penny in a solid gold toilet at New York City's Guggenheim Museum.
意大利艺术家、雕塑家卡泰兰创作了这个18K纯金马桶，并将其命名为“美国”。
Italian artist and sculptor Maurizio Cattelan created the fully functional 18-carat gold lavatory, which he has titled America.
据《纽约客》报道，咳咳，这款互动展品的展出地点被安排在了古根海姆博物馆的一间公厕里。
The, ahem, interactive exhibit has been installed in one of the Guggenheim's public bathrooms, reports the New Yorker.
这座位于第五大道的博物馆称这件展品是“一件大胆、无礼的作品”。他们撤下了古根海姆博物馆里的一个陶瓷马桶，在这个单人间、无性别厕所里换上了这个纯金的。
The Fifth Avenue museum describes the piece as "a bold, irreverent work". The lavatory replaced one of the Guggenheim's porcelain toilets in a one-person, unisex restroom.
访客们只要向博物馆支付进场费，就可以尽情地使用这个马桶。
Visitors who pay museum admission will be able to use it as they wish.
据博物馆方面表示，这次展览的目的是“让普通大众也能享受一回1%人群专属的极度奢靡”。
The exhibit is aimed at "making available to the public an extravagant luxury product seemingly intended for the 1 percent", according to the museum.
卡泰兰是来自意大利米兰的一名艺术家，他的父亲是一名卡车司机。在今年早些时候，他曾暗示说这件作品是受到了经济不平等的灵感启发。
Cattelan, a Milan-based artist and a truck driver's son, hinted earlier this year that his creation had been inspired by economic inequality.
这件展品也被人拿来和杜尚的前卫派作品《喷泉》做比较。杜尚于1917年在纽约展出了一件陶瓷小便池，引起了艺术界的轰动。
The exhibit has also drawn comparisons with Marcel Duchamp's avant-garde "Fountain", the porcelain urinal he exhibited in New York in 1917, causing a sensation in the art world.
