●內容簡介——

從第一次世界大戰到第二次世界大戰前夕，英國版畫的藝術和技術創新，來自格羅夫納畫派及其他地區的藝術家利用新興的現代主義風格。

在20世紀初動盪的幾十年裏，由於藝術家們試圖描繪機器時代的日常生活，圖形藝術在英國蓬勃發展。這本圖文並茂的書將萊斯利和約翰娜-加菲爾德收藏的罕見印刷品重新引入現代主義的敍事中，展示了它們與立體主義、未來主義和建構主義等其他運動的關係。文章探討了藝術家如何通過版畫來緩解創傷，紀念他們的戰時經歷，以及捕捉20和30年代的願望和恐懼。本書特別關注克勞德-弗萊和他在倫敦格羅夫納現代藝術學校的學生所革新的油印技術。此外，還強調了C.R.W.Nevinson、Sybil Andrews、Cyril E. Power、Paul Nash、Edward Wadsworth、Edith Lawrence、Ursula Fookes和Lill Tschudi等藝術家的開創性作品。在尋求促進更民主的藝術的過程中，這些藝術家創造了創新的圖形，在主題、形式、材料和技術上描繪了他們所處的動態時代。

A look at the artistic and technical innovation of British printmaking from World War I to the eve of World War II, as artists from the Grosvenor School and beyond harnessed an emerging modernist style

Throughout the tumultuous decades of the early twentieth century, the graphic arts flourished in Great Britain as artists sought to portray everyday life during the machine age. This richly illustrated volume reintroduces rare print works from the collection of Leslie and Johanna Garfield into the narrative of modernism, demonstrating their relationship to other movements such as Cubism, Futurism, and Constructivism. Essays explore how artists turned to printmaking to alleviate trauma, memorialize their wartime experiences, and capture the aspirations and fears of the twenties and thirties. Special attention is given to the linocut technique revolutionized by Claude Flight and his students at London’s Grosvenor School of Modern Art. Highlighted as well are the pioneering works of artists such as C. R. W. Nevinson, Sybil Andrews, Cyril E. Power, Paul Nash, Edward Wadsworth, Edith Lawrence, Ursula Fookes, and Lill Tschudi. In their quest to promote a more democratic art, these artists created innovative graphics that portrayed in subject, form, material, and technique the dynamic era in which they lived.
