Camden Town Group

The Camden Town Group was a collective of British artists formed in 1911, based in London’s Camden Town neighborhood. They aimed to capture contemporary life with bold colors and expressive brushwork, influenced by Impressionism and Post-Impressionism. The group sought to challenge traditional art norms by depicting everyday scenes, urban environments, and social realities with honesty and vitality. Although active for only a few years, they left a significant mark on British modern art, emphasizing innovation and a focus on modern life through vibrant, energetic compositions.
