Lill Tschudi
Like Sybil Andrews and Cyril Power, her contemporaries at the Grosvenor, Tschudi’s lino cuts typically depict vibrant scenes of sporting events, busy London street scenes, circuses and gymnasts. These works capture the dynamism and movement that is associated with the Vorticists. Although the Vorticist movement had grown in Britain during the interwar period, it had by that point diffused its more radical doctrinal approach to modern art, owing to the First World War, but its aesthetic influences were still largely appreciated well into the 1930s. Tschudi left for Paris after leaving the school, but maintained a constant connection with Britain throughout her life, exhibiting and selling most of her work with the help of Flight, who remained her close friend throughout.
