Bell, (Arthur) Clive (Heward) (1881–1964), art critic, educated at Cambridge where he came under the influence of G. E.
Moore and met members of what was to be the
Bloomsbury Group. In 1907 he married Vanessa Stephen. In 1910 he met R.
Fry, whose views contributed to his own theory of ‘Significant Form’, outlined in
Art (1914). With Fry, he was a champion of the Post-Impressionists. In
Civilization (1928) he argued that civilization depended on the existence of a (not necessarily hereditary) leisured élite.
