520 8 Paul Nash is widely regarded as one of the most
significant British artists of the 20th century. Best
known for his evocative paintings of war-ravaged
landscapes and his quasi-Surrealist visions of the English
countryside, Nash was also a consummate photographer, who
believed that the camera could reveal aspects of the world
that the painter could not. From 1930, when he was forty-
one, through to his death in 1946, he regularly
experimented with photography, working with an American-
made No. 1A pocket Kodak series 2 camera that had been
given to him by his wife. Now, for the first time in a
generation, the world of Nash's photographs is revealed in
this intimate new book. While they have long been known as
a compositional tool for Nash's paintings, this book
reveals his black-and-white photographs as powerful and
atmospheric works in their own right. From Nash's images
of tree trunks and ploughed fields to lighthouses and
haystacks, crumbling stone walls and statuary, rocks and
pebbles - as well as his circle of friends and fellow-
artists including Eileen Agar and Edward Burra - it shows
the complete range of his fascinating photographic
work.0The recent digitisation of Nash's extensive
collection of photographs from the Tate Archive shows an
artist whose subject matter, style and content was
immensely varied and inventive. Including both little-
known and previously unpublished photographs, and a highly
informative contextual essay by author Simon Grant,
Informal Beauty explores the experimental nature of Nash's
output and the intensity and power of his photographic
vision.
