About St Ives
- St Ives has been one of the most important centres of British art since the late 19th century, when the quality of its light — clear, luminous, and reflected from the sea on three sides — attracted painters from across Britain and Europe. The St Ives School, which flourished from the 1920s to the 1970s, included some of the most significant British artists of the 20th century, among them Ben Nicholson, Barbara Hepworth, Naum Gabo, and Peter Lanyon, and their work — which ranged from abstract painting and sculpture to landscape and figurative art — established St Ives as one of the most important centres of modernism in Britain. Tate St Ives, which opened in 1993, celebrates this legacy and continues to attract artists and visitors from around the world.
- Barbara Hepworth, one of the greatest sculptors of the 20th century, lived and worked in St Ives from 1939 until her death in a fire in her studio in 1975, and the Barbara Hepworth Sculpture Garden — preserved in the studio and garden where she worked — is one of the most moving artistic memorials in Britain. Hepworth's sculptures, which are characterised by their organic forms, their exploration of the relationship between solid and void, and their sensitivity to the qualities of stone, wood, and bronze, are among the most important works of art produced in Britain in the 20th century. The garden, which contains a collection of her sculptures in the setting she created for them, gives a unique insight into the relationship between an artist and her work.
- Virginia Woolf spent many childhood summers at Talland House in St Ives, and the town and its surroundings are the inspiration for her novel To the Lighthouse — one of the masterpieces of modernist fiction, in which the lighthouse visible from the house across the bay becomes a symbol of aspiration, loss, and the passage of time. Woolf's memories of St Ives — the quality of the light, the sound of the sea, the social world of the Victorian summer holiday — are woven throughout her writing, and the town has a particular resonance for readers of her work. The lighthouse in the novel is generally identified with Godrevy Lighthouse, which is visible from the St Ives bay.
