"Should the art be seperated from the artist?"

19/9/2019

 
Besides our club debates and tournaments we also participate at a lot of other events and try to spread knowledge about debating. - Here you can see a picture of yesterday’s debate at the beautiful "Künstlerhaus" in Munich. Our club members Philipp R. Steen and Christian Rausch (speaking in the picture) took part in a german debate about the topic “Should the art be separated from the artist?”. Since #metoo there has been a lot of discussion about celebrities like Harvey Weinstein, Kevin Spacey etc. and the question if you can still enjoy their art or if that’s not possible anymore after what they have done.
