A controversial art exhibition in Margate has sparked outrage after a Jewish visitor claimed she was 'hounded out' by an 'aggressive' artist amid accusations the display features antisemitic and Nazi imagery. The row has also raised questions over the promotion of the exhibition, which is listed on a tourism website run by Thanet District Council. Hearn said: 'Thanet District Council should be absolutely ashamed.' The exhibition is the work of artist Matthew Collings, 70, who was present during the confrontation. Both Collings and Thanet District Council have been approached for comment.
