Howard On Menzies: Building Modern Australia
Part two, last night, made no mention of Menzies aligning himself with Sir Lionel Lindsay's 1942 polemic "Addled Art", which had as its thesis that modern art was a Jewish conspiracy!
A letter of 1946 from Menzies to Lionel Lindsay is included in Modernism and Australia: Documents on Art, Design and Architecture 1917-1967.
Menzies: “You may judge from the tone of this letter, and quite rightly, that I have recently re-read Addled Art with supreme joy.”
