Making it accessibleMary Alice Evatt & Australian modernist artBy Melissa Boyde Speaking in New York just after the war Mary Alice emphasised the importance of government recognition that: “art is able to crystallize emotions, intellectual trends, moments in the past, moments in the future, for its people, thus clarifying their views on life, and in making critical or appreciative art viewers also people capable of a larger and more complete life as citizens of a modern state.” |
