Anthony Curtis (1922-1980)

Biography

Anthony Curtis was an artist born in Wakefield, Yorkshire, and then went onto study at Loughborough College, and at Bath Academy of Art in Corsham in 1952. At this time he was taught by many seminal artists of the 20th Century, including Terry Frost, Bryan Wynter, Peter Lanyon and Kenneth Armitage.

He exhibited his work at the Daily Express Young Artist’s Exhibition in 1957 and was included in in Jack Beddington’s Young Artists of Promise.  He went on to have one man shows at Bear Lane Gallery, Oxford in 1959. This painting is influenced by his St Ives School tutors and quite likely to have been painted on his frequent visits to Terry Frost and Peter Lanyon in Cornwall.
