Is It Possible To Separate A Brilliant British Artist From His Incestuous Abuse Of His Own Child?

The director of a museum mostly devoted to Eric Gill’s work held a series of workshops to discuss the various concerns. The director: “My view as a curator was: he’s an artist, and we show his work. I hadn’t felt it [his biography] would be an issue for us, until one day I found myself looking at work we would feel uncomfortable showing. There was one object in particular, and it really brought home the fact that Gill abused his daughters.”
