The St Ives Artists: New Edition: A Biography of Place and Time - Paperback
by Michael Bird (Author)
St Ives is unique in the story of modern art in Britain - and perhaps anywhere in the world. No other small seaside town has been host to such a roll-call of major artists. First published by Lund Humphries in 2008, The St Ives Artists: A Biography of Place and Time is now established as the classic account of the St Ives group of artists, combining in-depth research with 'startling anecdotal richness'. The beautifully produced new edition, first published in 2016, is now available in an accessible paperback format.
Michael Bird is an independent art historian. His other books for Lund Humphries are Sandra Blow (2005), Bryan Wynter (2010), Lynn Chadwick (2014), George Fullard: Sculpture and Survival (2017) and Studio Voices: Art and Life in 20th-Century Britain (2018). In 2022 he co-curated 'Living the Landscape: Barbara Hepworth, Ben Nicholson and the Artists of St Ives' at Museum Belv馘鑽e, Heerenveen - the first St Ives exhibition in a European public gallery. He is a visiting lecturer at Falmouth University.
