Description

"William Roberts was a key player in the development of Cubism in England before the First World War and the longest surviving member of Wyndham Lewis' Vorticist movement. When he died in 1980 however, he was unfairly thought of as an artist whose avant-garde heyday beggared his subsequent career. William Roberts: An English Cubist looks for the first time at the whole range of Roberts' work and asserts his true status as a major contributor to the art of the twentieth century." "William Roberts' life was one of artistic and practical struggle not helped by an intransigent and latterly hermetic personality. Widely illustrated with reproductions of his work, William Roberts: An English Cubist offers a fuller understanding of the life and work of this major British artist."--BOOK JACKET.
