ABSTRACT
The Development of Spirituality in the Work of
Lionel LeMoine FitzGerald 1890-1956
Elizabeth Wylie
1981
This work is a detailed study of the development of
spirituality as the content of FitzGerald's art. Following an analysis of the critical
literature on FitzGerald with particular regard to authors' comments on his spirituality,
his work is discussed chronologically. In this way it can be seen that his style changed
as his ideas and beliefs grew more intense and complex. Ultimately, this resulted in his
turn to abstraction in the 1950's, in order to convey his ideas about the
"oneness" of life.
A Selected Chronology is included as an Appendix, with
details as to FitzGerald's life and exhibition career.
