Vanessa Bell

Rosalind McKever

Here is a work devoted to the art and design of Vanessa Bell, a central figure in the internationally popular Bloomsbury group. The painter Vanessa Bell initiated a step change in modern British art, bringing the bright palette and bold stylization of the Parisian avant-garde to London. She was a central figure in the Bloomsbury group, alongside members of her family and close circle including Virginia Woolf, Clive Bell and Duncan Grant. This book explores Bell's radical approach to art and life through her paintings and designs for interiors, gardens, book jackets and more, bringing her work out of the shadow of her male contemporaries while celebrating her collaborative approach.
