To cause debate I would choose Christo, because of the type of art he does and in one of his (umbrellas, I think) the wind loosened an umbrella and killed an innocent bystander. Diego Rivera might also be good with his political affiliations and subject matter. Also Pollock would be good because of the controversy of his drip, abstract artand his alcoholism.
