About the artist

Victor Pasmore (1908–1998) was an English painter and printmaker and a highly influential abstract artist. His early representational work depicted landscapes, still life and figures and was typical of the Euston Road School which he helped found in 1937. However, in the late forties he embraced abstract art and constructions and became a seminal influence on its teaching. After his move to Malta, his later paintings and prints were influenced by Mediterranean colour and free forms which he claimed were purely abstract and not derived from nature.
