Bryan Wynter (1915-75) was a major figure in post-war British art. This is the first full-length survey of his career. It examines the cultural, intellectual and social contexts of his work, from his early studies at the Slade and interest in Surrealism, through his move to Cornwall after the Second World War and his place in the progressive art scene in London and St Ives between 1945 and 1975. Generously illustrated with works from all periods of Wynter''s creative life, including many works never previously reproduced, this book makes an important contribution to the history of post-war British art.
