Inhoud:

In January 2006, a man tried to break Marcel Duchamp's Fountain sculpture with a small hammer. The sculpted foot of Michelangelo's """"David"""" was damaged in 1991 by a purportedly mentally-ill artist. The author tackles this weighty issue in depth, exploring spectres of censorship, iconoclasm and vandalism that surround such acts.
