What are some famous modern art pieces that have sparked debates

Sure! Here are three responses you might find interesting:

"Oh, there are tons! One that really gets people talking is Marcel Duchamp's 'Fountain.' It's just a urinal, but it totally flipped the art world on its head. Then there's Damien Hirst's 'The Physical Impossibility of Death in the Mind of Someone Living,' which is basically a shark in formaldehyde. Some folks think it’s genius, while others just call it a gimmick. And who could forget about Banksy? His pieces often spark debates about art, politics, and even vandalism!"

"For sure! One piece that always comes up is 'The Dinner Party' by Judy Chicago. It’s a massive installation celebrating women in history, but some critics argue it’s too essentialist. Another hot topic is Jeff Koons' 'Balloon Dog'—some people see it as playful, while others think it’s just a shiny balloon. And, of course, you can't ignore Chris Ofili's 'The Holy Virgin Mary,' which caused a huge uproar for its use of elephant dung and pornographic images. Art really knows how to stir the pot!"
