A founding member of the British Surrealist Group, Julian Trevelyan (1910–1988) was at the centre of a defining moment in British 20th century art. He was an original participant of the Mass Observation project and embraced a wide variety of styles from surrealism to realism and abstraction.
After contributing to Britain’s first Surrealist statement, Trevelyan abandoned Cambridge for Paris in 1931 where he worked in Stanley William Hayter’s printmaking studio with Alberto Giacometti, André Masson, Pablo Picasso and Joan Miró. His early work was influenced by these artists as well as Max Ernst and Paul Klee, but he went on to develop his own unique style.
