For Frieze Masters 2026, Lyndsey Ingram is delighted to present an exceptional group of linocuts by five female artists who all attended the Grosvenor School, which was active between 1925 and 1940, including: Sybil Andrews, Ursula Fookes, Ethel Spowers, Eveline Syme and Lill Tschudi.
Our presentation aims to highlight the significant contributions women made to modernist printmaking, while positioning their work as important visual records of the progressive, modern world emerging around them in London and beyond. Although each artist developed distinct approaches to colour, movement, subject matter, and composition, collectively their works capture the energy of a changing society.
The significance of these artists continues to be recognised internationally, with their work held in major museums and collections around the world, including the National Gallery of Australia, Canberra; the British Museum, London; the Victoria and Albert Museum, London; the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA); The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; and the National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa.
