Do artists do not do to portray perfect harmony, instill peace in the hearts of people and let them enjoy the contemplation of truly beautiful and elevated images? The question contains the answer: sometimes the expectations of the public diverge so sharply with what the artists see the goal of their work that the scandal is inevitable.
In any society, with the exception of absolutely totalitarian (which, for example, there was an ancient Egypt with its indestructible visual canon for millennia), “scandalous” works will be created, because their very existence indicates the possibility of dialogue in society and that , how multifaceted and complex the problems with which art works can be.
Sometimes the shape of the work seems to be scandalous, differing from everything that the story knew before, because in this case the dumbfounded viewer feels how the ideas are destroyed before his eyes that he considered art for a long time, and not everyone is easily put up with it. With this fact. But especially often, as the reader can notice, the aura of scandal accompanies such topics and plots in which the sacred and profane collision occurs.
The hype around the inappropriately fulfilled religious images, the blatantly frank physicality, sexuality and the seemingly inappropriate irony in art does not subside for many centuries - only objects of criticism and forms in which they are fulfilled are changing
