Art In The Third Reich (1979) By Berthold Hinz
Since the demise of the Third Reich, Nazi art has been hidden away in closed archives and private collections as if it were the harbinger of some electrifying message - an action which ironically has surrounded it with just such an aura. The significance of Nazi art, as this study illustrates, lies not in its artistic qualities but in its potential to justify degrading and authoritarian social relationships. Art in the Third Reich , a powerful, demystifying study of the visual arts, graphically exposes not only the banality of Nazi art but the manipulative and exploitive aesthetic it manufactured.
