Zusammenfassung:
To an unprecedented extent, in the wake of the #metoo movement and, some say, due to an exaggerated 'cancel culture' that proliferates online, consumers of art - from literature to film to painting - are eager to dismiss the work of immoral artists. But can we ever separate the art from the artist? In this book, philosopher Erich Hatala Matthes offers insight into this conundrum by arguing that it doesn't matter whether we can separate the art from the artist, because we shouldn't.
