"Whether we respond in horror or relief at the iconoclastic act, the museum remains the key institutional mediator of our horror or delight; Stacy Boldricks excellent book lucidly illuminates the intimate relation of the apparently silent, contained museum and the wild energies that surround and feed it." - James Simpson, Harvard University, USA
"This is a staggeringly timely book tackling issues that are vitally important for our re-imagining of shared spaces within and well beyond museums." - Richard Clay, University of Newcastle, UK "Whether we respond in horror or relief at the iconoclastic act, the museum remains the key institutional mediator of our horror or delight; Stacy Boldricks excellent book lucidly illuminates the intimate relation of the apparently silent, contained museum and the wild energies that surround and feed it." - James Simpson, Harvard University, USA

"This is a well researched and relevant study of a subject that rarely gets adequate attention. Boldrick is an authoritative guide to the equivocal status of images in society and in the process she reveals much about iconoclasm and museums, as well as human nature. As long as there are image makers, it seems there will always be image breakers. As Boldrick syas, "Iconoclams never ends". - Stephen Feeke, Curator
