§ SIR TERRY FROST R.A., BRITISH (1915-2003), untitled, unfinished oil and collage on hardboard, 1954-56. 122 x 40 cm PROVENANCE: This work was begun when Frost was a Gregory Fellow at Leeds University and given to his friends Susan and Michael (who was Assistant to the Director, City Art Gallery and Temple Newsam House, Leeds from 1954-57). Frost told them the motifs were inspired by a visit to Malham Tarn; he had already produced a smaller sketch (also painted on hardboard) which they owned so he presented them with this version saying, "I don`t know how to finish this so I`d like you to have it!" The work was probably painted in the studio provided by the University in Moor Road, Leeds as it belongs to the period when he was a Gregory Fellow and it bears a likeness to a group of works which Terry Frost related to his experience of the landscape of the Yorkshire Dales. Similar details can be found on `Untitled Composition` 1954-56 (Tate ref: T05719). This lot is part of a single owner collection of 28 lots to include Roy Lichtenstein, Marcel Broodthaers, Terry Frost, Henry Moore, Richard Long, Victor Newsome, Keith Milow, Billy Al Bengston, Ian Stephenson, Sol LeWitt and Joe Tilson. SIR TERRY FROST, R.A, 1915-2003: Born in 1915 in Warwickshire. An abstract painter known for his association with the St Ives School. Frost was captured during the 1941 invasion of Crete. While a prisoner of war he discovered his love for painting. Later in London Frost developed his signature style of circles and abstract shapes used to convey movement. Married in 1945 before moving to Newlyn in 1946, Frost worked as an assistant to Barbara Hepworth and played a crucial role in the St Ives School, a colony of mainly abstract artists, along with Ben Nicholson and Patrick Heron. He taught at Bath Academy of Art and in Leeds, before becoming Artist in Residence at the Department of Fine Art, Reading University in 1965, later the university`s Professor of Painting. Made a Royal Academician in 1992 and knighted in 1998 Frost exhibited in London many times. A major retrospective `Terry Frost: Six Decades`, was held at the Royal Academy in 2000. 48 x 16in.
