"The Grosvenor School of Modern Art was founded by the influential teacher, painter
and wood-engraver, Iain McNab, in 1925. Situated in London's Pimlico district the
school played a key role in the story of modern British printmaking between the wars.
The Grosvenor School artists received critical acclaim in their time that continued
until the late 1930s under the influence of Claude Flight who pioneered a revolutionary
method of making the simple linocut to dynamic and colourful effect. Cyril Power,
a lecturer in architecture at the school, and Sybil Andrews, the School Secretary,
were two of Flight's star students. Whilst incorporating the avant-garde values of
Cubism, Futurism and Vorticism, the Grosvenor School printmakers brought their own
unique interpretation of the contemporary world to the medium of linocut in images
that are strikingly familiar to this day and are included in the print collections
of the world's major museums, including the British Museum, the MoMA New York and
the Australian National Gallery."--Dust jacket
