Terry Frost’s artistic career began in a Prisoner of War camp, where he met and was taught by artist Adrian Heath. It was the start of a journey that would see him become one of the most important British painters of his generation.
Frost later worked as assistant to Barbara Hepworth in St Ives, Cornwall, where he spent much of his life. In this film, Frost’s grandson Luke Frost, himself a painter, shows us around Frost’s Porthmeor studio, on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean, and offers a personal insight into his grandfather’s life and work.
