Untitled, Sir Terry FROST 1995 Printers Proof
Untitled 1995
Sir Terry FROST
Monochrome etching from Sir Terry Frost RA one of Britain's most successful and highly acclaimed artists of the Twentieth Century. His colourful and exuberant paintings gave a popular dimension to the landscape-orientated abstract art produced by the post-war St Ives artist colony.
This is a "Printers Proof" (inscribed PP) which means it is the first one off the press which meets the artists approval for saturation, tonality, density eveness of printing etc. This is held by the printer as the benchmark for the edition. The printer usually gets to keep the PP which the artist signs..
Frost has developed a highly individualised version of modernist abstraction. His work asserts the self-sufficiency of the image, yet is fed by constant observation and an intense responsiveness to both art and nature. He has developed a repertoire of recurrent motifs discs, half-discs and quarter-disc segments, circles, chevrons and arrowheads, truncated ovals, lozenges, triangles and diamonds. With this vocabulary, he creats a visual language of sign and analogy'.(Quoted in Terry Frost, ed. E. Knowles, 1994).
Aquatint/wove signed, dated 1995 and annotated P/P.
ARTIST INFORMATION

However Sir Terry Frost only really started painting while bring held as a prisoner of war in Germany in 1943. A fellow inmate, the Slade-trained painter Adrian Heath helped him discover his artistic talent during the four years he spent incarcerated. On his return to England he studied at the Camberwell School of Arts and Crafts enjoying the flourishing artistic scenes of London and St Ives. In 1945 he married Kathleen Clarke. By the late 1950's Sir Terry Frost had become established as a leading abstract painter exhibiting regularly in London and throughout the world. From the mid 1950’s he was also involved in academia, teaching at various UK universities. In 1974 Sir Terry Frost RA moved permanently to Newlyn in Cornwall where his love of the region proved a rich source of inspiration for much of his work. He was elected a Royal Academician by the Royal Academy of Arts in 1992 and received a knighthood in 1998. Terry Frost died on 1st September 2003
