Description

Pallant House Gallery in Chichester houses an outstanding collection of Modern British Art, including paintings, drawings, graphics and sculptures. It is a result of the vision and determination of a remarkable collector and patron of contemporary artists, Walter Hussey, Dean of Chichester Cathedral from 1955 to 1977, who left his collection to form the basis of a public art gallery. The collection was further strengthened in 1989 by Charles Kearley, who collected works by many of the artists in the Hussey bequest, as well as works by a number of their continental and US contemporaries. This beautifully designed and illustrated book follows themes in 20th-century British art history, using examples from this important collection to illustrate and elucidate the points made. It is far more than a book on a collection, and represents a scholarly contribution to this period of art history.
