Primary Source concerning Nazis burning/destruction of art

by Juan1037

Ive got a history presentation coming up with the topic "Art and culture under the Nazi rule" and we must present and analyse at least one primary source. I figured, a good one would be Hitlers original command to round up and/or destroy all the art he perceived as degenerate. Is it known when he first issued such a decree? Was it a letter to Goebbels, a speech, some other form of command? I dont really know how to search for a primary source online and what keywords to use. Do any of you know of a good primary source concerning this topic? Or is there a website that compiles many primary sources and stuff like that? Either way, Ill be thankful for any info :)
