The $2M Urinal: Why Hard Work Doesn’t Cut It (2018...
I'm confused. Does this mean that the "real plumber" was an artist; or the art museum didn't have WC before putting a urinal art piece.

Yeah, I can see how that's confusing. My take is that the first person to display a urinal (as an art piece) was an artist - but the second person to _try_ to display a urinal (as an art piece) was just a plumber (meaning: not an artist).

Succinctly, it's the same as telling a joke a second time to the same audience.
