As such, art has no intinsic value, no objective rubric. So, if we measure its value by the morality artist or author (as in the case of our forefathers), it would be an impossible task: we will have to disavow ourselves of nearly everything we have inherited. (I am not claiming that one's morality does not affect one's art, rather it is a separate consideration.)

Whichever bond is questionable should be the one that determines any evaluations of the artist. ?
