Hitler and Art Janet Kuypers 3/13/17 These are selected words from excerpts od a key Adolf Hitler speech on art, in Nuremberg, September 6, 1938. the endowment of a true artist is that his work of art expresses the general will of a period works of art rightly mirror the inner mind of age of life at present, expression of the world with race will turn to ages which have already possessed freedom of the spirit, of the will, and of the mind This, naturally, the manifestation in art shall be influenced in a thousand ways through the evidences and memories of that which still, as an ideal force lives on and works on in the imagination The more the modern approaches this more and more will civilization be influenced art is in its purpose no mystic cult, only the care of a people We have no religious retreats, but arenas, and our assembly is not the mystical gloom of a cathedral, but brightness and light mystically-minded steal art, works of culture, positive facts, speak louder than any we can speak of a new awakening of our cultural life, which finds its confirmation not in mutual compliments and literary phrases, but in positive evidences of cultural creative force architecture, sculpture, painting, drama, and the rest bring proof of a creative period in art, which for richness and impetuosity has rarely been matched in the course of human history try to turn these facts upside down, we know that cultural achievements will have won respect and appreciation far more than the material have no doubt that creative work, since it is the most sensitive expression of a talent, cannot be understood, far less appreciated, by individuals who are not the same make art it is a proclamation of body and spirit it does not make propaganda for an individual work, for the subject, or for the artist; it makes propaganda for the world which confronts us and so art will announce and herald that common mental attitude, that common view of life, because these can meet with understanding only if it reveals in itself the true essence of the spirit The mystic narrowness and gloom of the cathedrals began to recede and, to match the free life of the spirit, buildings became spacious and flooded with light mystical twilight gave way before increasing brightness freedom of the soul and of the will, for centuries, opened the way to new forms of expression and artistic creation |
