London Group. An exhibiting society of British artists formed in 1913 by an amalgamation of the
Camden Town Group with several smaller groups and various individuals. The first president was
Harold Gilman. Initially it was dominated by
Futurists and those who would soon be called
Vorticists, among them
Bomberg,
Epstein (who suggested the name),
Nevinson, and
Wadsworth. It soon became less aggressively avant-garde, although it still represented advanced taste. Several artists associated with the
Bloomsbury Group joined in the early years, including
Roger Fry (1918), who wrote that the London Group had ‘done for
Post-Impressionism in England what the
New English Art Club did in a previous generation for
Impressionism’. By the Second World War the group had lost its place as a significant force in British art, but it still exists.
