Is there any method to allow users to block content by taxonomy?

I'm working on a gallery art site, and I want to be able to allow users to opt out of viewing specific types of content when checking the updated pages. eg: every item has a choice between sketches/3D/sculpture, and the user only wants to see sculptures, or wants to see 3D and sculptures, but not sketches.

This is related somewhat to ignoring users (really, a staple in many social networking sites) but contentblocker seems a little.. incomplete.

Are you sure blocking is the best way to do it?

Think about how the site is organised to meet the users needs, if the information is still presented in large groups you'd probably be better off implementing a filter by taxonomy term.

Yeah, that's more along the lines of what I'm looking for. The problem is that I'm looking at a one-click option that applies to all the content views.

Bah. Maybe I'm just going about this the wrong way.

I'm working on Yet Another Art Gallery, and there's going to be a taxonomy term with the long label, "Aaaaaaaugh, my eyes!" I basically want a way for people to be able to opt in/out of seeing those in the normal gallery views.
