In Art & Outrage, John A. Walker covers the period from the late 1940s to the 1990s to provide the first detailed survey of the most prominent cases of art that has scandalised. The work of some of Britains leading, and less well known, painters and sculptors of the postwar period is considered, such as Richard Hamilton, Bryan Organ, Rachel Whiteread, Reg Butler, Damien Hirst, Jamie Wagg, Barry Flanagan and Antony Gormley. Included are works made famous by the media, such as Carl Andres Tate Gallery installation of 120 bricks, Rick Gibsons foetus earrings, Anthony-Noel Kellys cast body-parts sculptures and Marcus Harveys portrait of Myra Hindley. Walker describes how each incident emerged, considers the arguments for and against, and examines how each was concluded.
