"The Angry Penguins was a modernist literary and artistic movement that sought to shake up the entrenched art establishment of Australia in the 1940s. The movement was run by a group of passionate and 'angry' young men - the rebels of their day. Centred around poet Max Harris, the movement took their name from an art and literary magazine first published by Harris in 1940". -- Cf. Holland, M., 2004. Citing references [online].
