- Bryan Herbert Wynter (8 September 1915 – 2 February 1975) was one of the St. Ives group of British painters. His work was mainly abstract, drawing upon nature for inspiration. Born in London, he was educated at Haileybury. In 1933 he began work as a trainee in his family's laundry business. In 1937–38 he studied at Westminster School of Art, and 1938–40 at the Slade School of Fine Art in London and Oxford. In the Second World War he was a conscientious objector, first working on land drainage in Oxfordshire, then looking after monkeys being studied by the zoologist Solly Zuckerman. He settled in Zennor, Cornwall, in 1945, and in 1946 was co-founder of the Crypt Group. He married Suzanne Lethbridge, daughter of the writer Mabel Lethbridge whom he met in Cornwall. He taught at Bath Academy of Art, Corsham, from 1951 to 1956. He was a member of the London Group of artists, and of the Penwith Society of Arts. He died at Penzance, Cornwall. His auction record is £131,000 for his painting In the Streams Path (1958), set at Sotheby's on 11 November 2016. The work had been acquired by the pop star David Bowie in 1995 at the sale of the collection of Sir John Moores. In 2001 he was the subject of Bryan Wynter: A Selected Retrospective at Tate St Ives. Some of his most remarkable works are constructions which he titled IMOOS (Images Moving Out Onto Space). Using a parabolic mirror, he would hang contrasting pairs of painted shapes, which rotated freely. Their reversed reflections enlarged, appearing to move in opposite directions. (en)
- Bryan Wynter (* 8. September 1915 in London; † 2. Februar 1975 in Penzance, Cornwall, England) war ein englischer Maler. Bryan Wynter sollte ursprünglich nach Zürich gehen, um dort die Geschäfte seiner Familie fortzuführen, stattdessen rebellierte er und ging 1938 nach London und studierte dort Kunst an der Slade School of Fine Art. Er zog 1945 nach St Ives in Cornwall und fand Anschluss an die britische Malergruppe St Ives Group, zu der unter anderem Peter Lanyon, Terry Frost, , William Scott und Roger Hilton gehörten. In den 1950er Jahren experimentierte Wynter mit Drogen, vor allem mit Mescalin. Die Rausch-Erfahrungen hatten Einfluss auf seine Arbeiten, die Malerei wurde deutlich abstrakter. Die wesentliche Quelle seiner Inspiration blieb allerdings die Landschaft von Cornwall. Im Jahr 1959 war Bryan Wynter Teilnehmer der documenta II in Kassel. Im Jahr 1962 hatte Winter einen Herzinfarkt. Er experimentierte einige Zeit mit Kinetischer Kunst. Einige bemerkenswerte Objekte dieser Zeit sind seine Kinetischen Skulpturen, die er „IMOOS“ (Images Moving Out Onto Space) nannte, bestehend aus Parabolspiegeln und frei rotierenden, bemalten Gebilden. In den letzten zehn Jahren seines Lebens fand er wieder zur Malerei zurück. (de)
