Paul Gauguin changed the course of art history, but to many he's a monster. The modern master accused of taking ‘child brides’ in Tahiti is long dead, but his legacy in the Pacific is well and truly alive. Hosted by award-winning Samoan-Australian journalist Sosefina Fuamoli, this four-part series asks... can you love the art but loathe the artist?
The Gauguin Dilemma has been produced alongside the National Gallery exhibition Gauguin’s World: Tōna Iho, Tōna Ao.
