Description
Ben Nicholson: A Life and Work in St Ives Ben Nicholson was one of the greatest British artists of the twentieth century, first coming to international prominence with his famous 'white reliefs' of the 1930s. This fully illustrated survey provides a detailed examination of Nicholson's life and work in St Ives, giving a thorough introduction as well as new insights into the evolving practice of this major artist over a period of six decades. Nicholson played a significant role in the European avant-garde, forming close links with other influential artists of his time. At the same time, he maintained a strong sense of tradition, drawing on landscape and still-life forms throughout his career. Spanning more than 60 years, Nicholson's work included carved reliefs, paintings, drawings, and prints. Virginia Button's engaging book offers a comprehensive look at Nicholson's life and art, shedding new light on the development of this important artist over time.
