Synopsis

Much admired as a realist painter, english artist victor pasmore surprised the art world in 1948 by suddenly directing his efforts toward the making of constructed abstract art. he was followed by kenneth and mary martin, adrian heath and the sculptor robert adams, and the group was then joined by younger artists, anthony hill, john ernest and gillian wise. this book follows the development of this major avant-garde group and explores why they have received so little attention until now.
