I would say it’s not possible. The art IS the artist. The art only is what it is because the artist is who they are. But a lot of people seem to be very comfortable with the idea of separating the art from the artist. What say Lemmy?

    In a world as overflowing with art as this, it’s worth conflating the art and the artist.

    Every work of art produced by a bad person is one produced by a good (or more likely, morally ambiguous) person you don’t.
