Anthony Fry

British 1927 – 2016 


British painter Anthony Fry was born in Essex. He studied painting at the Edinburgh College of Art and Camberwell School of Arts and Crafts. Fry spent two years on a scholarship at the British School at Rome in Italy in the early 1950s. He taught at the Bath Academy of Art and then spent two years in the early 1960s on a Harkness scholarship to the United States, where his style was heavily influenced by American Abstract Expressionists. Fry returned to England and taught at the Chelsea School of Art for almost twenty years. He travelled widely, including to Morocco, Spain, and Kerala in Southern India.

Fry exhibited extensively, including in London and New York. His work can be found in numerous private and prestigious public collections worldwide, including the Tate and the Saatchi Collection in England and the National Gallery of Victoria in Australia.
