notes

Through drawing upon a wealth of unpublished photographs and archival material, Hitchmough attempts to define the self-fashioned aesthetic that refuses to be defined. The art and dress of the Bloomsbury Group derived a coherent group identity, as demonstrated in a series of intriguing photographs and self-portraits.

Insights

One of the most successful and influential interdisciplinary collectives of the twentieth century, the Bloomsbury Group began with a desire to challenge the religious, artistic, social, and sexual taboos of Victorian England, initiating a revolution that still resonates with contemporary creatives.
