'Outrageous Fortune' was showcased in 2011 for Hayward Touring exhibition, showcasing contemporary artists’ interpretations of the classic Tarot de Marseille deck of cards. 78 artists from a range of artistic disciplines and mediums were each asked to create a card for a contemporary tarot pack, printed as a numbered edition of 1,000. Each artist drew a card randomly and had to reinterpret the theme in their own way. The decks of cards were then given away to recipients nominated by the artists. The initial exhibition consisted of the 78 artworks, all produced and framed to the same near-A3 format, accompanied by explanatory captions and an example of the Tarot of Marseille pack.

The box was designed by Scott King and the back of the cards by Susan Hiller. The following list of artists took part in the project:

Jonathan Allen, Aaron Angell, Ed Atkins, Anna Barriball, Zoe Beloff, Manfredi Beninati, Juliette Blightman, Erik Blinderman, Pavel Braila, Paul Buck, Edwin Burdis, Montgomery Cantsin and Kat Harvey, Rachel Cattle, Nicolas Ceccaldi, Izumi Chiaraluce, Adam Chodzko, Keith Coventry, Cullinan / Richards, John Cussans, Tom Dale, Simon Davenport, Sara De Bondt, Arnaud Desjardin, Tatjana Doll, Ruth Ewan, Graham Fagen, Keith Farquhar, Michael Fullerton, Manuela Gernedel, Melanie Gilligan, Brian Griffiths, Susan Hiller, HIT (Lina Grumm and Annette Lux), Will Holder, Phillipa Horan, Kenneth Hunt, Candice Jacobs, Alan Kane, Scott King, Anja Kirschner and David Panos, Jonty Lees, Cedar Lewisohn, George Henry Longly, Fiona Mackay, Roger Malbert, Dawn Mellor, Jeremy Millar, Elinor Morgan, Fraser Muggeridge, Mike Nelson, Novel (Alun Rowlands and Matt Williams), Luigi Ontani, Anna Parkina, Katie Paterson, João Penalva, Perle Petit, Simon Popper, Manuel Raeder, Dan Rees, James Richards and Thom Murphy, Hannah Rickards, Hannah Sawtell, Noah Sherwood, Jamie Shovlin, Lindsay Seers, Cally Spooner, Jemima Stehli, Jack Strange, Stephen Sutcliffe, Emma Talbot, Alexis Marguerite Teplin, Nadia Thondrayen, Suzanne Treister, Raisa Veikkola and Frida Alvinzi, Julie Verhoeven, Sophie von Hellermann, Tris Vonna-Michell in dialogue with Konst och teknik, Stuart Whipps, Rachel Withers and Cerith Wyn Evans.
