Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. 1st Edition. Turnovsky Fifty years in New Zealand By Fred Turnovsky. Publisher: Allen & Unwin, 1990, first edition. Very good hardback with jacket, slight bumping, shelf/edge-wear, no inscriptions, minor marks, a little creasing. Jacket has light shelf/edge-w…ear, creasing. 256 pages, illustrated. The young immigrant arrived in Wellington on 23rd January 1940 with no skills, no money, and no guarantor. Inevitably, Turnovsky became deeply involved in the politics and administration of government funding of the arts. He became a foundation member of the Arts Advisory Council in 1960 and deputy chairman of its successor, the Queen Elizabeth II Arts Council of New Zealand, from 1970 to 1973. He was instrumental in getting the government to convene Arts Conference 70, which he chaired. This conference gave the arts, including Maori arts, a higher public profile and an acknowledged but still precarious claim to government expenditure in the national interest. By the mid 1960s Tatra was one of the largest makers of soft leather goods in Australasia, and was one of the first 10 New Zealand companies to be awarded a government Export Award in 1966. Imperceptibly over the years, Turnovsky thought of himself less as a displaced Czech and became more comfortable with the idea of himself as a New Zealander. It is clear from his autobiography that the transition was not easy. There had been much that dismayed him about New Zealand on his arrival - such as the lack of cultural activity, pleasing architecture or European foodstuffs, and the drinking habits of New Zealand men - but, characteristically, he set out to make it a more congenial place to live in by making common cause with like-minded men and women. Early success in business gave him time to devote first to the development of music and later to the arts generally.
