A first opinion on separating art

1:17

separate

1:17

uh the art from the artist

1:21

um just your first opinion now my first

1:23

opinion is that it's very it's I think

1:25

it's an easy thing to do in terms of

1:27

when you don't think about it it's easy

1:28

to disassociate Wagner he was like kind

1:31

of known to be also anti-semitic right

1:33

or maybe even a Nazi sympathizer I guess

1:35

and the question is do you think it's

1:38

appropriate or morally correct uh

1:41

um still by the artist's music artwork

1:45

can you separate the art from the artist

1:47

I could with Wagner yes you could it's

1:50

undoubtedly great and is undoubtedly

1:52

racist you look for the soil

1:55

the bits you want from it I guess

1:58

and why why do you think that you

2:00

can what's what's your kind of theorist

2:03

why you're able to separate it well the

2:06

anonymous entirely good anyway or

2:09

entirely bad

2:10

I would think that um

2:13

if you achieve moments of music or

2:15

greatness

2:16

it's not a reason to ignore that because

2:19

you're unpleasant in some other ways so

2:21

there are some rubbers yeah yeah like

2:23

they um you know like like they sell

2:25

like how how are the streets and like

2:27

how tough everything is but then they

2:29

get like a lot of money so then it's

2:30

like oh but if you actually you don't

2:33

separate the artists
