Claude Flight was a British printmaker and painter known for his innovations in linocut and woodcut techniques during the early twentieth century. Working primarily in bold, geometric abstraction, he developed a distinctive approach to color reduction printing that influenced a generation of British modernists. Flight taught at Grosvenor School of Modern Art in London, where he mentored numerous artists in his method of sequential color separation. His prints combine Cubist and Futurist spatial strategies with the tactile immediacy of carved relief surfaces.
