John Morley Bury (1919-1999) was a British painter.
Early life
[ edit ]
John Morley Bury was born in Bournemouth in 1919[1] and grew up in the village of Holdenhurst . Bury attended Bournemouth School and later Bournemouth Municipal College Art (1937–9) then Reading University (1939–40).[2] [3]
Bury spent six years in the British Army , with a tank regiment in the Western Desert, then as a prisoner of war in Italy and Germany , being freed by Russian troops and repatriated.
Post-war painting career
[ edit ]
Landscape, 1963
After the war Bury returned to Reading University, where he met his wife, art historian Shirley Bury, also attending Regent Street Polytechnic and Goldsmiths’ College . He attended evening classes in textiles at Central School of Arts and Crafts and a course of lectures at the Courtauld Institute . He taught part-time at Emanuel School , Wandsworth, from 1948–58, then part-time at Hornsey College of Art until retirement in 1984.[4]
Public collections include Victoria & Albert Museum , Salford Art Gallery , Nuffield Foundation and Cambridge University . Corporate collections including Staveley Industries , Lintas and Rank Xerox . The Tate Gallery archive holds Bury’s self-portrait.[5]
Bury’s interest in figure subjects in the 1950s changed to landscape in the 1960s, landscapes “not real but a collection of seen ideas. Gradually texture of the paint became more important.” He wrote that “studies in the organisation of colour relationships and the optical qualities which create a sense of space” were important to him.[6]
