Jake and Dinos Chapman have created an effigy of Hitler as part of part of the Grundy Art Gallery’s Adventureland Golf exhibition, which features art works as holes on an imaginary golf course. The work has stirred up a debate, causing those on the Board of Deputies of British Jews to call the work “tasteless.” Known for their controversial work, the gallery described the Chapman Brothers’ piece as “the powerful image of the Nazi regime within the context of holiday fun and in doing so making reference to the British wartime spirit of making humour at the Fuhrer’s expense.”
