.
Art journal, 50 (4): 84 (1991)ID: L_CSA_BHA; M1: 11 ill.; p. 84-91; ID: Bibliography History Art (CSA).

Abstract

Discusses Nazi censorship of modern art, 1930s-1945, culminating in the 1937 exhibition "Entartete Kunst." Describes the moral and political grounds on which the Nazis evaluated art, and sees a parallel between their denigration of "degenerate" art and the current criticism of contemporary art by the political right in the United States.
