Art for All reveals a forgotten or marginalised area of 20th
century British art. Christine Lindey delves into the fascinating
treasure trove of British socially-committed art from the 30s through to
the Cold War, and of which most people will be unaware. She
demonstrates that the work of these artists deserves to be rediscovered
and enjoyed. In her lavishly-illustrated volume, she also examines the
circumstances that turned these individuals into socially committed
artists, often swimming against the current of their times; and she also
examines the special circumstances of their artistic production, their
achievements and the handicaps they had to cope with. At the present,
with capitalism in a seemingly continuous state of crisis and a popular
demand for social change, these artists and their work take on a new
relevance.
