Description
Authors

The artists Dora Carrington (1893-1932) was a true bohemian. Sir John Rothenstein once described her as 'the most neglected serious painter of her time', but Carrington - who cut her hair short and chose to be known by her surname - was a significant contributor to Modern British art during the interwar years and a vital associate of the Bloomsbury Group.

Bringing her artworks together, this book summons up Carrington's whole way of life: loving, creative, domestic and intimate. She was an artist who remained true to her own vision and to the people and places that nourished her.

Distributed for Pallant House Gallery

Exhibition Schedule:

Pallant House Gallery, Chichester
(9 November 2024–27 April 2025)

Anne Chisholm, a biographer and critic, is the editor of Carrington’s Letters. Ariane Bankes, a writer and curator, has published two books, David Jones: Vision and Memory and Julian Trevelyan: The Artist and His World, coinciding with exhibitions she has curated at Pallant House Gallery.
