Additional Description
Tennant and Annan were members of the Artists’ International Association, a politicised group of artists founded in 1932. Their aim was the ‘Unity of Artists for Peace, Democracy and Cultural Development.’ This left-wing group brought together artists and designers to produce pamphlets, posters and public art commissions placing artistic creativity at the heart of everyday life. The Association embraced all media, both modernist and traditional in style, but much of their work was social realism with an anti- Fascist and pacifist theme. They lived at Purley Grange, Surrey.
