There is no such thing as a moral or an immoral book. Books are well written, or badly written. That is all. (...)
The moral life of man forms part of the subject-matter of the artist, but the morality of art consists in the perfect use of an imperfect medium.
From the preface to Dorian Grey.
So art can contain morality and moral judgment as part of the subject matter, but the artistic quality itself is independent of moral.
