who created that beauty were notjust deeply flawed but possibly criminal? that they did things which any right—thinking human being would regard as unacceptable? cos there is a real discussion right across culture now... iagree, iagree, and i have thought about this all my life, and the fact is, human beings are flawed and artists are flawed, too. and if we expect human perfection from every artist that we want to read or look at or listen to... yeah, but you're creating a false argument. it's not about expecting perfection, it's about... well... ..it�*s about placing somebody and their art in a context. and if that creator or that artistic genius, maybe, was so flawed that their behaviours were utterly unacceptable, then does that colour the way you see their creativity? let me give you an example.
