"Hylas and the Nymphs controversy
Hylas and the Nymphs, 1896
In January 2018, Manchester Art Gallery curator Clare Gannaway removed Waterhouse's 1896 Hylas and the Nymphs from public display, after a decision "taken by gallery staff [along] with artist Sonia Boyce."[7] The decision, the curator stated, was "influenced by recent movements against the objectification and exploitation of women" such as the MeToo campaign and the Presidents Club controversy.[7] She denied the removal constituted any form of censorship, stating, "we want to see this as the start of a process, not an end point," and providing visitors with Post-It notes to air their views; meantime, postcards of the painting were removed from the gift shop.[7]"
