A key figure in British art in the post-1945 period, Pasmore's decision in the late 1940s to move from a figurative to an abstract manner was not only a statement of intent, but an example for a whole generation of younger artists.

Remembered as not just a wonderful painter but as an influential printmaker, teacher and advocate of all things modern, this selection of books and catalogues gives a flavour of this important artist and his work.
