Terry Frost: Here Comes The Sun at 3812 Gallery


  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)

Celebrating its 10th anniversary, 3812 Gallery is pleased to present the first solo exhibition of sir Terry Frost (1915-2003) in Asia. The exhibition will display 20 oil on canvas and collage paintings created by this seminal figure in modern and postwar British art between 1948 and 2003.

Terry Frost was a British abstract artist. He was inspired by the fascinating natural landscapes of St Ives, Cornwall, in the southwest of England. He is known for creating colourful abstract works inspired by the sun, moon and glittering water, as well as boats and the female form, all figuring prominently in his compositions, abstracted into sensuous circles and curves. He is also an important member of the St Ives School, the Modern British art movement that originated in the Cornish town of St Ives, in the 20th century. Despite starting his career as an artist rather late in life, aged 30, his works have become synonymous with Modern British art and are studied extensively, and Frost is now viewed as one of the most recognized abstract artists in Britain.
