作者: Roger Fry

Roger Eliot Fry turned his attention from science to art while at Cambridge University, and the world has benefited by his influence on the art world. He was associated with London’s Bloomsbury Group, a discussion group that included fellow artists Vanessa Bell and Duncan Grant and critic Clive Bell. Fry studied painting in Italy and France before becoming Curator of Paintings at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York in 1905. Five years later, he organized the premier post-impressionist exhibition for London’s Grafton Galleries. Concerned with the everyday, the bulk of Fry’s work deals with landscape, functionality, and commonness.
