<\/p>\n
The question of what is and isn’t acceptable in art came to a head recently with the recent controversy at the Whitney Biennial. Coming at a politically divisive time, Dana Shultz’ “Open Casket”\u00a0<\/em>was a particularly tone-deaf and controversial portrayal of racial brutality that did not go over at all well with the Black artistic community. In the process, it has opened up a dialogue about which works of art should be permitted and who has the right to other people’s suffering.<\/p>\n Yet a painting as controversial\u00a0as “Open Casket” does not exist in a vacuum. Artists have been constantly pushing people’s buttons when it comes to creating works of artistic value. In light of these recent events, SLEEK have compiled ten more works that rank as some of the most controversial ever made, featuring\u00a0pedophilia, animal abuse, gratuitous nudity and the sacrilegious. It goes without saying these are slightly NSFW.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Depicting Vladimir Lenin half-naked, and with a huge protruding buttock, this Salvador Dali <\/a>painting seriously offended the surrealist community when it came out. This association was made worse by Dali’s\u00a0appendant note. He wrote that <\/a>“the buttock, of course, was the symbol of the revolution of October 1917.” When it was unveiled in 1934, many of his contemporaries tried to physically damage it, without much luck.<\/p>\n Damien Hirst<\/a>\u00a0has never been a stranger to controversy, often courting it to promote his works. A case in point is his\u00a01991 instalment which preserved\u00a0a dead tiger shark in\u00a0formaldehyde. The exhibit managed to enrage both animal rights groups who thought the work was inhumane and art critics who thought that the work wasn’t art. When told that anyone could have made this work, Hirst’s response was simple:<\/a> “But you didn’t, did you?”<\/p>\n Marcus Harvey probably knew what was going to happen when he painted Myra Hindley. As one\u00a0half of the sadistic moors murderers, she is one of the most reviled people who ever lived. Adapting a police photo into a large-scale canvas, Harvey’s painting had to be protected by security guards after fellow artists threw ink and eggs onto it. Nevertheless, over 300,000 people attended the exhibition, making it a huge success.<\/p>\n The Polish-French\u00a0painter Balthus had no interest in the modernist tradition, instead painting subjects he believed were close to his heart. Nonetheless, they are still imbued with a surrealistic tone. A case in point is “The Guitar Lesson,” where the guitar is on the floor and the female teacher is touching her underage student as if she is an instrument. An unsettling depiction of paedophilia, it hasn’t been exhibited since 1977. No one dares to put it on display.<\/p>\n The greatest painter of the 20th century, Pablo Picasso,<\/a> knew how to rile audiences and art critics alike. This large oil painting from 1907 represented a new form of expression for the artist, being a key proto-cubist work. Yet, upon its unveiling\u00a0in 1916, its frank portrayal of five nude prostitutes proved too much for many viewers. Henri Matisse<\/a>\u00a0was particularly critical of the work, calling it “hideous”, although this is probably because he was jealous.<\/p>\n Whilst it may seem rather tame nowadays, Thomas Eakin<\/a>‘s “The Gross Clinic” was too realistic for most people\u00a0in 1875. Depicting a medical procedure in an unashamedly frank tone, it represented a revolution in the way people understood surgery. Due to the\u00a0rankness of the operation, and the calmness of the doctors, in comparison to the highly distressed woman on the left, its unsettling nature caused many audience members to be highly shocked.<\/p>\n Gustave Courbet<\/a>‘s\u00a0“Origin Of The World” changed the direction of the nude forever. Instead of picturing her from far away, or in an idealised pose, the vantage point of the painting is from underneath her genitalia. More importantly, her face isn’t seen, only her body. Its realism was revolutionary at the time, and reprints of the painting in art\u00a0books can still face censorship from the authorities today. More recently Facebook banned a French user who posted it on his profile.<\/p>\nThe Enigma Of William Tell<\/h3>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"images","gallery":[{"ID":71652,"id":71652,"title":"Lenin-900x534","filename":"Lenin-900x534.jpg","filesize":55954,"url":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Lenin-900x534.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/de\/article\/controversial-artworks\/lenin-900x534\/","alt":"","author":"1","description":"","caption":"\"The Enigma Of William Tell,\" by Salvador Dali. 1933.","name":"lenin-900x534","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":49921,"date":"2018-11-05 13:25:19","modified":"2018-11-05 13:53:35","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":900,"height":534,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Lenin-900x534.jpg","thumbnail-width":128,"thumbnail-height":76,"medium":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Lenin-900x534.jpg","medium-width":900,"medium-height":534,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Lenin-900x534.jpg","medium_large-width":900,"medium_large-height":534,"large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Lenin-900x534.jpg","large-width":900,"large-height":534,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Lenin-900x534.jpg","1536x1536-width":900,"1536x1536-height":534,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Lenin-900x534.jpg","2048x2048-width":900,"2048x2048-height":534,"trp-custom-language-flag":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Lenin-900x534.jpg","trp-custom-language-flag-width":18,"trp-custom-language-flag-height":12,"wpvr_mobile":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Lenin-900x534.jpg","wpvr_mobile-width":900,"wpvr_mobile-height":534}}],"settings":{"fit_width":"6","caption":""}},{"acf_fc_layout":"text_area","text_area":"
