Amazon CEO and Blue Origins founder Jeff Bezos is the richest person on Earth while Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk is one of the most well-known tech innovators globally. Apart from being tech billionaires, what these two have in common is a passion for space travel and exploration, which, if we just were to go by the amount of tweets and compare, Musk pursues doggedly like a true believer in his cause, while Bezos is comparatively more secretive about his plans for space. Lincoln Townley, a UK-based contemporary artist, has tried to capture the age of the private space travel with his new art collection called the Universe, and says that the space programs of tech tycoons like Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk and Richard Branson (Virgin Galactic) have served as inspiration for his latest art collection, as per a report by Business Insider.

Universe will be exhibited in Saatchi Gallery, London, in September. According to the report, Lincoln Townley is known for making portraits of Hollywood royalty and that Sir Michael Caine even referred to him as the next Andy Warhol in 2016.
