Is anailís inrochtana, eolasach é Censored Art Today ar na díospóireachtaí a bhaineann le cinsireacht ealaíne agus ‘cultúr cealaithe’ mar a thugtar air, ag díriú ar cé hiad na cinsirí agus cén fáth go bhfuil siad ag teannadh síos ar fhoirmeacha léirithe ealaíne ar fud an domhain. Is ceist na gcéadta bliain d’aois í an chinsireacht ealaíne agus is cosúil go bhfuil sí ag méadú sa 21ú haois – cén fáth a bhfuil sé seo amhlaidh?
Déanann Gareth Harris anailís shaineolach ar na comhthéacsanna éagsúla ina bhfuil srianta le sárú ag ealaíontóirí, músaeim agus coimeádaithe sa lá atá inniu ann, ag fiosrú cinsireacht pholaitiúil sa tSín, i gCúba agus sa Mheánoirthear; ealaíontóirí LGBTQ+ a chur faoi chois sna ‘daonlathais neamhliobrálacha’; na halgartaim ag póilíneacht ealaíne ar líne; Iarsmalanna an Iarthair agus 'cultúr ar ceal'; agus na scéalta a bhaineann le séadchomharthaí 'fadhbanna'. Léiríonn a staidéar suimiúil, a tharraingíonn ar thaighde agus agallaimh fhairsing, cén fáth go bhfuil an chinsireacht ar an gceann is mó topaicí, a bhfuil tionchar suntasach aici ar ealaíontóirí.
