A teacher of mine once had us memorize:
"Art is the result of the objective desire innate within every culture to express its most profound moralities and its concept of beauty in a form which is both tangible and eternal"
If we agree with the statement (I do not entirely agree) , then seeing an exhibit does not mean that we condone it.
Art does not exist in a vacuum.
Wagner had social and polital views....shall we avoid his music if we disagree?
I am NOT certain that the quote is a truth. Art can also express a concept of disdain rather than beauty. And it need not be tangible nor eternal.
Nonetheless, we can gain a modicum of understanding...or at least cogitate on what it is saying.
Point of this being? Not certain. But good starting point.
