About us

During Trevor Bell's long career, the fortunes of abstract painting rose and fell, but Bell always remained committed to abstraction.

Writer and independent art historian, Michael Bird, explores the changing ideas and ideals embodied by abstract painting in the second half of the 20th century, beginning with Bell's arrival in 1955 in the abstract outpost of St Ives.
