ABSTRACT
21 September 1921, vol. xxviii, 94
Bell (1881–1964) was an English art critic and journalist. In 1906 he married Vanessa, the sister of Virginia Woolf. An important member of the Bloomsbury Group, his central ideas were set out in ‘Art’ (1914) and ‘Civilization’ (1928).
This is an extract from a very much longer essay on jazz and its influence on modern art.
