Ivon Hitchens

(British, 1893–1979)

Ivon Hitchens was a British painter best known for his abstract, panoramic depictions of woodland landscapes near his home in West Sussex. His works utilize abbreviated fields of color perceived from a landscape rather than exact forms. Born on March 3, 1893 in London, England, Hitchens went on to study at the Royal Academy of Art and became a part of the London Group of artists, which also included Leon Kossoff. Hitchens then moved out to the countryside after his London studio was bombed during World War II, and he would live out of a caravan and paint his surroundings for the remainder of his life. His work was exhibited at the British Pavilion in the 1956 Venice Biennale, and today, his paintings are in the collections of the Tate Gallery in London, the National Galleries of Scotland in Edinburgh, and the Courtauld Institute in London, among others. Hitchens died on August 29, 1979 in Petworth, United Kingdom.
