Waller and the War Memorial - Lecture @Glaas Inc

Annual William Montgomery Lecture 2024.

Dr Susan Kellett’s lecture reveals a man of extraordinary talent who drew on his experience of war, personal philosophy of art, and the Medieval customs of his forebears to produce a scheme of glass that not only challenged the Australian War Memorial Committee’s prevailing ideologies, but also transcends those commonly associated with commemoration.

However, the most surprising element of the windows is the love story that they reveal and his location of a woman – a nurse – as the heart of a nation’s premier war memorial.
