The British art historian, curator, critic, and painter Roger Fry was one of the foremost advocates of modern art of his time and was largely responsible for introducing modern French art to Anglophone audiences in Great Britain and the United States. As a member of the Bloomsbury Group, cofounder of the Omega Workshops, curator at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, and professor of art at Cambridge University in the United Kingdom, Fry remains among the most important critical voices on art in the early twentieth century. His extended meditations on the emotional qualities inherent in a work of art, explored in the context of Post-Impressionist painting, had a formative impact upon his contemporaries and shaped the discipline of art history.
