Kerr's remarks sound so similar to arguments for the death penalty. i.e,
eliminate the bastard and all of his works for his sins. No redemption
permitted. I personally find this postion equally, if not more abusive.

I'm so glad to hear that Eric Gill created lots of pretty typefaces when he
had a moment to spare from abusing his daughters (see his biography, Fiona
someone I think). Really redeems him, eh? I know we're meant to forgive
artists their private life in consideration of their genius, but there's a
limit and if I ever came to own anything of Gill's I'd take great pleasure in
burning it, however much it cost.
