Â§ ANTHONY ROSSITER (1926-2000) PROPERTY FROM THE ESTATE OF KATHARINE 'KITTY' CHURCH (LOTS 15-42) ANTHONY ROSSITER (1926-2000) Remains of wall signed with initials, titled and dated AR Remains of wall (upper left), dated jan '61 (upper right) ink, watercolour, gouache and chalk 26 x 38.55 cm (10 1/4 x 15 1/4 in) PROPERTY FROM THE ESTATE OF KATHARINE 'KITTY' CHURCH (LOTS 15-42) âIn the early days when I first knew her, she had already discovered the personal style, dashing, generous, linear with homage to Cezanne and perhaps Van Gogh, that she maintained in her painting life.â John Piper In her obituary in the Times (21 August 1999) Katharine âKittyâ Churchâs painting style was described as: âcalm, colourful, decorative, unmistakably English, changed little in seventy years. She moved in Bohemian and Bloomsbury circles.â The fauve-rich palette of her work is defined by the strong free-handling of her brushstrokes. Subjects vary from oil portraiture and landscapes, through to subtle, delicately transparent watercolours of landscapes and still lifes. Lots 15-42 offer an exciting insight into Churchâs painterly range and showcase the artistic exchange between her and her fellow artist friends. Born in Highgate, north London, Katharine Church, known as âKittyâ amongst friends and family, always wanted to paint. She trained at the Royal Academy of Arts between 1930-1933 and at the Slade between 1933 and 1934. In her early years Kitty exhibited regularly at the Royal Academy. Her first solo exhibition was in 1933 at the Wertheim Gallery. Other artists who exhibited there included Christopher Wood, Victor Pasmore and Cedric Morris. Kitty also showed with the New English Art Club, the London Group and between 1937-1947 her work was exhibited at the influential Lefevre Gallery, which supported avant-garde artists such as Henry Moore, Ben Nicholson and Barbara Hepworth. In 1954 the artist was invited to take part in the Figures in their setting exhibition held at the Tate Gallery. Henry Tonks and Philip Wilson Steer had a strong influence on Kittyâs early work, but it was her friendship with Ivon Hitchens that liberated her painting technique. She recalled: âthis was one of lifeâs magic and iconic moments for me, Ivon really helped me to loosen up and face the worldâ (See J. Duncalfe, Katharine Church: A life in colour, The later years, Harrogate, 2015, p. 25) In 1936 Kitty married Anthony West, the son of writers Rebecca West and H.G. Wells. The couple initially lived in London before moving to Quarry Farm, Chicksgrove, Tisbury, near Salisbury, where they brought up their children Caroline and Edmund. There they hosted many of their friends, including the New Zealand painter Frances Hodgkins. Still life with fruits (lot 30) is one of many works Hodgkins dedicated to the Kitty and Anthony. Other regular visitors before the War included John and Mywafany Piper, Ralph and Frances Partridge, Noel and Catharine Carrington, Julian Trevelyan and Mary Fedden. For many of those who visited Kitty would organise painting expeditions. After the war Kitty and Anthony separated, with Anthony moving to the United States to work as a journalist. In the 1960s Kitty purchased Sutton House and ran the Hambledon Gallery at Blandford Forum. There she promoted the work of her early art-school friends Mary Fedden and Julian Trevelyan, alongside work by the Pipers, John Craxton, Leonard Rosoman, Keith Vaughan, Mary Potter and Cecil Beaton; she also supported a wide range of local artists. Paying tribute to the success of the venture, Padraig Macmiadhachain commented: âunder Kitty West, the Hambledon was then the one and only Gallery in Dorset of any worth.â (see: Vivienne Light: Circles and Tangents, Canterton Books, 2011, p. 64). While busying herself at the gallery Kitty never stopped painting. In the 80s her work was included in the exhibition John Piper and British New-Romantics at the National Museum of Wales. In 1988 John Duncalfe arranged a retrospective of her work at his gallery in Harrogate and was key in arranging her participation in the Harrogate International Festival in 1990. Kittyâs zest for painting and art never ceased and she remained active even in her later years.
