Until Val Baker's book, surprisingly little had been written about the art of St Ives. Written from the inside, and 'as it happened', this book is an intimate portrait of the artist community in perhaps its most celebrated period, the two decades following the Second World War. Traditional painting, epitomised by the glowing canvases of John Park and Charles Simpson, still flourished alongside the innovations of the modernist school led by Ben Nicholson and Barbara Hepworth and which brought international recognition. The crafts, too, featured in Val Baker's book, from Bernard Leach's celebrated pottery on the hill to innumerable smaller studios in St Ives and other locations in west Cornwall, along with locally made furniture, metalwork and textiles. The book's re-publication today serves as a reminder of those heady days, profiling both the famous and the near-forgotten, set in their historical context by David Wilkinson's introduction which shows how St Ives has continued to flourish, to the point at which art is now as vital as mining and fishing were in the past.

"In this new exploration of modern art and St Ives, works by St Ives artists are looked at in the context of their contemporaries in Europe, North America and beyond. The work of this period includes the utopian ideal of constructivism and the tradition of craft and the handmade. Paintings, sculpture and ceramics - drawn from public and private collections in the UK and abroad - richly illustrate how artists' engagement with St Ives was a part of the global art scene of the twentieth century." -- back cover.

In 1884, Whistler and Sickert stayed in the remote Cornish fishing village of St Ives. From that time onwards it has been the inspiration and home of many notable painters. The 1985 exhibition at the Tate Gallery focused on the years 1939-64, the era of Wallis, Nicholson, Hepworth, Lanyon, Wynter, Leach, Heron, Frost and Gabo, to name but a few of the 28 artists represented. It reawakened an interest in St Ives which led to the founding of the Tate Gallery St Ives eight years later. The biographical notes, exhibition histories and bibliographies on each of the artists have been fully updated for the second edition.

Written to accompany the 2010 Penzance exhibition of the same title, the book records how the St Ives art colony adapted to myriad changes during this difficult period and highlights how the town not only still managed to attract distinguished artists, but also inspired them to produce seminal works. An extraordinary diversity of work was produced in the colony in this period and artists featured include Frances Hodgkins, Christopher Wood, Ben and Winifred Nicholson, Alfred Wallis, Emile Fabry, Charles Simpson, John Park, Borlase Smart, Moffat Lindner and leading printmaker, Alfred Hartley. The 1920s also witnessed the dawn of the colony as a centre for handicraft, with the establishment of the Leach Pottery and the Cryséde hand block-printed textile factory.

In the period before the First World War, the art colony at St Ives developed an international reputation as a centre for both the practice and teaching of landscape and marine painting, and was visited by leading artists from around the world. This ground-breaking survey of the art of the period brings together, for the very first time, a feast of paintings from this golden age of British art. The show has been researched by David Tovey, and marks the launch of his major new book, Pioneers of St Ives Art at Home and Abroad (1889-1914).

This unique social history of the St Ives art colony not only looks at the way of life enjoyed by the artistic community, but also assesses, for the first time, the impact of the artists on the town and the townsfolk. In addition to well-known names, such as Adrian Stokes, Julius Olsson and William Titcomb, there were many other long-term resident artists, who enjoyed varying degrees of success in the art world, but who had much appreciated talents in other directions, as, for instance, photographers, comic artists, designers, architects, writers, musicians, actors or sportsmen. After considering the surprising diversity of their backgrounds, the book looks at the range of accomodation that the artists chose - from hotels, humble lodgings, rented homes of varying standards and sizes, in and out of town, to purpose-built architect-designed dream homes. It then looks extensively at the wide range of old buildings in the fishing quarter that were commandeered for studios - net lofts, music pavilions, mine engine houses etc, as well as the complexes on Porthmeor, many of which have now proved to be purpose-built by local entrepreneurs.
