Separating Art from the Artist
In this chapter, the speakers discuss the idea of separating an artist's personal life from their art, using examples like Picasso and Caravaggio. They express their dislike for the prudishness and prurience of modern society, where past artists are judged based on modern standards. They also touch on the possibility of divorcing the person from their work, mentioning Woody Allen as another example.
