Grosvenor School Of Modern Art
- Grosvenor School Of Modern Art
Situated at 33 Warwick Square in Pimlico, London,The Grosvenor School Of Modern Art was a British Art School founded by the printmakers and linocut artists Claude Flight, Iain McNab, Cyril Edward Power and Sybil Andrews in 1925.
Attracting a cross-section of students from across the globe (including Swiss artist Lill Tschudi), The Grosvenor School Of Modern Art became a leading force in the production and promotion of modernistic printmaking works while teaching a solid foundation of art history, with each artist lecturing on their speciality.
Three Antipodeans; Ethel Spowers, Dorrit Black and Eveline Syme became instrumental in organising exhibitions and promoting the school in Australia.
