The St Ives school of art originated in the 1920s
and developed in the 30s and 40s, particularly with the arrival in 1939 of Barbara Hepworth and her husband Ben Nicholson.
Tate St Ives celebrates the artists who lived and worked in the town throughout the twentieth century.
The Barbara Hepworth Museum is managed by Tate St. Ives.
