Tate Gallery, St Ives, Cornwall. St Ives has been an artists' colony since 1928. By 1939 many of the leading British artists of the time, including Ben Nicholson, Naum Gabo, and Barbara Hepworth, had settled permanently in the seaside town. The opening of the Tate Gallery, St Ives in 1993 has allowed some of the best work of these and the later St Ives artists to be brought together in one building.

Ill-defined group of English artists, working in a wide range of styles, who lived in the fishing port of St Ives, Cornwall, after the outbreak of World War II. The group included Ben Nicholson and Barbara Hepworth.
