Should Gauguin Be Canceled?

How much do we want to admire Paul Gauguin?  His attempt to escape civilization led him to abandon his family and ultimately to live in Tahiti, where he amassed a collection of child-mistresses, many of whom were also his models. Can we separate his paintings from his person?
