From AskArt:
Brian Wall was born in 1931 in London, England. He first studied at Luton Art School and took jobs as a glass-blower. At age 23, he moved to the famous artists' colony of St. Ives, Cornwall on the British Isles. It was there that he worked as Barbara Hepworth's assistant for several years. Wall's earliest, free-standing wood sculptures were primarily influenced by Mondrian's paintings. He then adopted steel as his medium of shoice to create variations of earlier planar, Constructivist work.
In 1962, he began teaching sculpture at the Central School of Art and Design (now Central St. Martins) in London. He moved to California in 1972 to continue his art career. He was given a retrospective at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art in 1983. His work is represented in public collections throughout the United States, Great Britain, and Australia.
His teaching assignment include 1961-62 Ealing College of Art, Middlesex, England; 1962-72 Central School of Art & Design; and 1969-92 University of California, Berkeley.
