A Great Artist whose Name you Dare not Speak

 

Long before his party’s election in January 1933, Adolf Hitler earned a living by using his artistic skills to produce paintings that sold to the public or were used as illustrations for postcards. The future German statesman was a gifted student of the fine arts and studied music, opera, painting, sculpture, and architecture.

While impoverished in Vienna, he read voraciously and still managed to spend whatever meagre income he had to attend lectures, concerts, opera, and the theatre.  Even when he barely had enough money to survive, he refused to compromise. He purchased the best paints, brushes, paper, and canvas.

Contrary to the propaganda of the victors, Adolf Hitler was never rejected by the art college to which he applied. It was simply suggested that his talends were better suited to architectural images rather than the human form.

Similarly, Herbert von Karajan described as the greatest orchestral conductor of all time desired a career as a concert pianist. It was suggested to the musician that he was far better suited to conducting: it was good advice.

As a remarkably prolific artist, he is estimated to have created between 2,000 and 3,000 drawings, watercolours, and oil paintings. His artistic talent revealed itself at an early age and he continued painting and drawing throughout his life.

Even while behind the front lines in World War I (during Rest and Recuperation), he continued to paint in his spare time and contributed instructional drawings and cartoons to the military newspaper. His art continued throughout his leadership of Germany and included detailed building plans, furniture design, city planning, and monuments.

Perhaps the notion of an artist becoming a political revolutionary seems strange in the current era where politics are dominated by professional politicians.

However, it was Hitler’s profound artistic vision that translated from his dreams into reality the Autobahn, Volkswagen, Rocket Science, and in general, the groundwork for a prosperous people and flourishing culture before this was lost in World War Two.

Just as the ancient Greeks wrote about the unique qualifications of a philosopher to be a leader, an artist’s unique perspective and instinctual drive to create something out of nothing makes the artist uniquely qualified to lead and inspire a nation.

Hitler believed that modern art was in conflict with the eternal values of beauty and therefore could only lead to a decline of civilization.

Modern art separated people from identifying with the positive expressions of art because it was incomprehensible. In addition, modern art obliterated the concept of beauty and consequently stood as an enemy of life itself because it preferred nothingness or the ugly to the beautiful.

Many people who live in cities with buildings that are several hundred years old and maintain architectural standards suggest that these old buildings energize and inspire the people who live there. The modern era has done nothing to increase the cultural level of our big cities. All the glory and treasures of our cities are the inheritance of the past.

Contrary to the belief that Hitler was a prude about things such as nudity, he allowed painters and sculptors to produce both male and female nudes. Male nudes were depicted as responsible, heroic and powerful while females were neat, clean, and full-breasted while having flat bellies, long-muscled thighs, and slim shanks.

Figures were sometimes depicted as Nordic, perhaps because many people prefer the natural beauty of Nordics, but were at times brunette too.

It should be noted that contrary to historical propaganda, Germany is not a Nordic nation but a predominately Alpine dark complexion one and this has been the case for several centuries.

The dark-haired Deputy Fuhrer Rudolf Hess was described as the perfect Aryan. Of the notable German leaders, only Reinhard Heydrich was blonde and of Scandinavian appearance.

Hitler`s considerable royalties did not benefit him. The statesman never owned a bank account, a house, or a car. He donated his fortune to German Welfare Services and to the first study of Breast Cancer which Hitler funded in its entirety. His concern regarding the latter was based on the fact that his beloved mother had died of the disease.

The only occasion on which he asked his accountant to set money aside for him was to purchase Paul Matthias Padua´s `Leda and the Swan.

This master painting was stolen by Americans after the war as well as a couple of other artworks. Claims of German looting to establish a giant museum in Linz are malicious lies made by the war’s military victors.

Fredericks has a letter written to him in the year 2010 by the official historian of the Louvre Museum in Paris in which he states categorically that no German troops plundered any museum in Europe.

These things must be brought into the open since they show the monumental difference in integrity and the gulf which existed between the German President-Chancellor and the other leaders of the world.

Roosevelt had never seen the inside of an art museum; he read pulp novels and harboured only a burning hatred of all which was better than he.

Those who demonstrably plundered were the Soviets, the English and the Americans who even stooped so low as to plunder the grave of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. The only books published in the West that expose the Allied looting fest after the defeat of the Reich are those of author-journalist Michael Walsh (which were all removed by conventional publishers).

Hitler never drew a salary or any kind of state benefit. His entitlements were donated by him to German Welfare, the only welfare organization in history which demonstrably was incorruptible and in which all monies went to the needy, not as give-away, but as a means to train people and to make them proudly independent.

NOTE: The Art of Adolf Hitler by Michael Walsh was removed by Amazon and LULU and shunned by palace book publishers.
