- Scandals in art occur when members of the public are shocked or offended by a work of art at the time of its first exhibition or publication, (e.g. visual art, literature, scenic design or music). The provocativeness of the scandal may relate to a controversial subject or style, being context-sensitive, according to the personality of the artist, along with transient political, religious, social, and moral factors. The Gleaners by Jean-François Millet seems innocuous today, but the large size of a painting, generally reserved for religious and mythological subjects, depicting the rural poor was seen by the upper class as an endorsement of the type of grievances that had erupted in the revolutionary violence of 1848, just 9 years earlier. In contrast, the 90 cans of Artist's Shit (Italian: Merda d'artista, 1961), each labeled as containing 30 grams of feces of the artist Piero Manzoni, were regarded as social commentary rather than scandal. Collectors began buying the cans and they soon fetched high prices at auction; in August 2016, at an auction in Milan, can #69 sold for €275,000, including auction fees. (en)
- Un scandale artistique est une réaction de rejet ou de controverse suscitée par une œuvre d'art, dans le cadre de sa présentation ou de sa publication, quelle que soit son expression (arts visuels, littérature, arts scéniques, musiques...). Le scandale peut revêtir plusieurs formes, selon le sujet ou le style de l'œuvre controversée mis en cause, voire selon la personnalité de l'artiste, ou selon le contexte politique, religieux, social ou moral où l'œuvre évolue. L'histoire de l'art est ponctuée de scandales retentissants, depuis les nudités du Jugement dernier de Michel-Ange jusqu'aux performances de l'art contemporain, en passant par l'exposition de l'Olympia de Manet ou la première représentation du Sacre du Printemps de Stravinsky.
