Synopsis "Vanessa Bell: A World of Form and Colour"

This publication, together with the exhibition it accompanies, presents the largest ever survey of work by Vanessa Bell (1879-1961). Described in 1923 as 'the most important woman painter in Europe', Bell was a pioneering modernist and founding member of the Bloomsbury Group, a circle of influential English artists, writers and intellectuals in the first half of the twentieth century. The book traces Bell's explorations into the Italian Renaissance, her encounters with the European avant-garde, including Henri Matisse and Pablo Picasso, and her leading role in social and cultural activities such as the Friday Club, a group of artists founded in 1905, as well as the design enterprise Omega Workshops. It also looks at the key contributions Bell made towards the development of abstract art, creating what friend and art critic Roger Fry described as 'visual music'. Collaborations formed an essential part of Bell's approach to art, including with her sister, the writer Virginia Woolf, and the artist Duncan Grant, with whom Vanessa Bell's all-encompassing approach to art found its ultimate expression in Charleston, the farmhouse they shared in East Sussex. Through over 130 works of art produced across her entire career this book examines the development of Bell's landscapes, still lifes and portraits alongside her wider approach to creativity through design, furniture, ceramics and drawings.
