"In this new exploration of modern art and St Ives, works by St Ives artists are looked at in the context of their contemporaries in Europe, North America and beyond. The work of this period includes the utopian ideal of constructivism and the tradition of craft and the handmade. Paintings, sculpture and ceramics - drawn from public and private collections in the UK and abroad - richly illustrate how artists' engagement with St Ives was a part of the global art scene of the twentieth century." -- back cover.
