The Modern Art Basher

Once again Susan Burns has violently attacked an early 20th Century masterpiece. Earlier in the year the middle-aged woman took an extreme dislike to Gauguin's Two Tahitian Women and was arrested after attacking it due to the CIA supposedly ordering her to do so via a radio implanted in her head. Clearly her mistrust for Modern Art goes beyond Post-Impressionism, with her latest attack filtering out to the Fauvist artist - Matisse and The Plumed Hat (this time slamming it against the wall at quite a force). Which movement or artist is next? I was never really a fan of Dali, so maybe we could channel her in that direction?
