The Primitive Art of Bryan Pearce (Inscribed by the Artist to Kate Nicholson)

Noszlopy’s important early introduction to the art of Bryan Pearce. “Bryan Pearce is a primitive painter in the sense that hardly any external cultural influence determined his art. Though he lives in a 20th century culture and is encouraged by many members of the St. Ives artist colony, Bryan Pearce is an outsider”. Inscribed on inside of front cover by Bryan Pearce to the painter Kate Nicholson (daughter of Winifred and Ben Nicholson): “To Kate with love from Bryan July 1964”.
