Published on the occasion of an exhibition held at The Courtauld Gallery, Courtauld Institute of Art, 15 Oct. 1999-23 Jan. 2000. Includes bibliographical references and index. Includes also works by Seurat, Cezanne, Duncan Grant, Omega Workshop, and others. Subject: Fry, Roger Eliot (1866-1934) --Exhibitions --Criticism and interpretation --Art, Modern --20th century --Great Britain. Summary: The leading critic of contemporary art writing in English in the first half of the twentieth century, Roger Fry defined what made art modern in Britain and America. It was Fry who coined the term "Post-Impressionism" and created a sensation in London with two shows of the new art from France in 1910 and 1912. Fry was an extraordinarily versatile figure - a popularizer and scholar, art historian and art scribe, exhibiting painter and museum curator, restorer and impresario, member of the establishment and rebel, thinker and doer. He worked on both sides of the Atlantic, in London and at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. This book brings together and reveals the interplay of all the elements of Fry's personality and influence, examining the formation of his views, his relationship with other critics, his art historical and museum activity, the ideals of the Omega design workshop he founded, his own paintings and collaborative murals and his views of the 'primitive': children's art, non-Western art, paleolithic art. This book concludes with Fry's own words - the text of a hitherto unpublished 'Lecture on Design', which reveals some key tenets of his mature thought. The book accompanies a major exhibition at the Courtauld Gallery in London, and contains essays by a number of distinguished scholars and writers, led by Christopher Green, with specialist knowledge of Fry's different fields of activity. 4 Kg.
