Can a work of art be separated from its artist after the artist has been convicted?
Overview
Intro
When an artist is accused or convicted of serious crimes, what happens to his or her films, books, and music? Does the work exist independently of the person who created it?
When an artist is accused or convicted of serious crimes, what should be done with their films, books, and music? Does a work exist independently of the person who created it? Can we continue to appreciate it without feeling like we’re condoning the author’s actions? Don’t miss this roundtable discussion with Olivier Moeschler, a cultural sociologist; Johan Rochel, a doctor of law and philosopher; Christine Salvadé, head of the RTS culture unit, and Katerina Skila, screenwriter and director, who will shed light on this sensitive yet increasingly relevant issue. September 24, 2026, 5:00 p.m. Studio13, Route de Riddes 87A CHF 10. Registration: films@valais.ch
