Welcome to THE FRY ART GALLERY, which could be called the ‘Gallery in the Garden’, and houses a unique collection of works brought together during the lifetime of many of the artists who were part of the artistic community which flourished in and around the nearby village of Great Bardfield before and after the second world war.
Edward Bawden was one of the first artists to move to Great Bardfield. He became a generous benefactor to the Gallery and there are over 150 of his works in the Collection, from which a substantial permanent display has been mounted. There is also substantial representation of his contemporary, Eric Ravilious.
Other artists gathered coincidentally in the area at that time included such well known names as Michael Rothenstein RA, Audrey Cruddas, John Aldridge RA, George Chapman, Michael Ayrton, Kenneth Rowntree, Bernard Cheese, Walter Hoyle, Sheila Robinson, Robert Colquhoun, Robert Macbryde and Marianne Straub.
