Bryan Wynter (1915-75) was a major figure in the post-war British art scene. This is the first full-length book on his work and examines the cultural intellectural and social contexts of his career as an artist from his studies at the Slade and wartime experience as a conscientious objector in the 1940s through his move to Cornwall and association with the other leading artists around St Ives between 1945 and 1975. Generously illustrated with works from all periods of Wynter s creative life the book makes an important contribution to the history of post-war British art and will be a valuable source of reference for all those with an interest in abstract art the St Ives painters and post-war cultural history.
