Dr Harriet Riches is an expert in the history of art and can talk about past art disasters

She is able to comment on previous examples of art which have outraged public opinion and simple common sense - for instance Chris Burden in 1971 who ended up having himself shot in the arm or more recently Mark McGowan who planned to leave a tap running as a form of Art outraging many at the water that would be wasted.
