- Conditional culture
- F W Preece, Adelaide, 1938
Conditional culture is the manifesto of the Jindywoorobak position. Here, Ingamells saught to 'free Australian art from whatever alien inlfuences trammel it'. This involved a 'recognition of environmental values', a de-Europeanising of artistic language and an incorporation of Aboriginal cultural forms into the European-Australian understanding of land.
'Commentary' by Ian Tilbrook follows Ingamell's essay.
