Description

Ben Nicholson From the Studio brings together an intimate collection of artworks and personal possessions from one of Britain's most influential modern artists. Ben Nicholson's studio was a treasure trove of everyday objects that inspired his creative experiments in abstract art. From patterned mocha-ware jugs to spanners, hammers, and chisels, these ordinary items played a significant role in shaping Nicholson's artistic style. This book showcases his paintings, reliefs, prints, and drawings alongside his personal possessions and studio tools, offering a unique insight into the artist's development from traditional still lifes to abstract works. Through his still life practice, Nicholson explored form and color, drawing inspiration from his father, William Nicholson, as well as encounters with other Modernist greats. This book explores the artistic and personal influences that shaped Nicholson's style from the 1920s to the 1970s.
