Iconoclasts are individuals who challenge or reject established beliefs, traditions, or values, often seeking to bring about change or reform. The term historically refers to those who opposed the veneration of religious images, particularly during the Byzantine Iconoclasm. In a broader sense, iconoclasts can be seen as innovators or rebels in various fields, including art, politics, and culture, who aim to disrupt the status quo. Their actions can provoke controversy and debate, reflecting a tension between tradition and progress.

Iconoclasts still exist. Used as a noun, an iconoclast is a person who attacks laws, principles, beliefs or traditions as being based on error or superstition. The word may also be defined as a breaker or destroyer of images, especially those used for religious veneration. There was a group of people within the Greek Orthodox Church (between 725 and 842 CE) that workedto intentionally destroy religious icons and images. Synonyms include: radical, dissenter, rebel, and nonconformist.
The iconoclastic controversy, primarily occurring in the Byzantine Empire during the 8th and 9th centuries, ultimately resulted in the restoration of the veneration of icons. After a period of intense conflict between iconoclasts, who opposed the use of religious images, and iconodules, who supported them, the Second Council of Nicaea in 787 affirmed the legitimacy of icons. This decision solidified the position of the iconodules and marked a significant moment in the development of Byzantine religious practice, reinforcing the role of icons in Eastern Orthodox Christianity. The controversy also had lasting effects on Christian theology and the relationship between church and state.
