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: Tona Iho, Tona Ao.
