Jimmy Carr Destroys Art

 Jimmy Carr hosts a unique television experiment in which an audience decides whether to cancel controversial artists and offensive artworks. But they need to think carefully about their decision because there’s a twist: the works they vote to cancel will be destroyed.

Celebrating Channel 4’s disruptive roots, this provocative television first asks where people draw the line today between artistic expression, controversy and harm. Britain seems riven by disagreement about art. Public statues are being torn down or defaced and galleries are being petitioned or used as places for protest. The question of what to do with problematic art takes us to the heart of what we truly believe in.
