Biography

Considered one of the finest printmakers in Britain, Brunsdon’s work highlights the contrasting relationships between architecture and countryside. He studied at the Cheltenham College of Art, followed by the Royal College of Art under the tutelage of Julian Trevelyan, Edwin la Dell, Edward Ardizzone, and Edward Bawden. Whilst initially inspired by American abstract expressionism, his work evolved more into the realms of neo-romanticism, following such artists as John Piper, Paul Nash, and Graham Sutherland. Brunsdon’s contribution to printmaking, especially his work with colour and the developments of direct-to-plate etching techniques, has placed him as a crucially important artist in 20th century British printmaking. His work is held in the collections of Tate, the Victoria & Albert Museum, the Arts Council of Great Britain, the British Council, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, along with numerous regional museums, galleries, and private collections.
