An event held at an art gallery in Hackney, saw participants paste Maddy's photographs onto pornographic magazines.
Artists at the Decima Gallery claimed the stunt was a satirical look at the way the case was treated by the media. The event was part of a weekend examining the pornography industry.
Clarence Mitchell, spokesperson for Madeleine's parents Gerry and Kate, said such acts could only hamper the hunt for their daughter, who went missing from a holiday apartment in Portugal in May 2007.
Meg Hillier, MP for Hackney South and Shoreditch, branded the stunt "sick and appalling".
A Hackney police spokesperson said they had not received any complaints about Sunday's event.
