John Golding CBE (10 September 1929 – 9 April 2012) was a British artist, art scholar and curator, perhaps best known for his seminal text Cubism: A History and an Analysis, 1907–1914,[1] first published in 1959 and later revised in several subsequent editions.[2]
He taught 'Art of the Modern Period' at the Courtauld Institute of Art from 1959 to 1981 and was elected a Fellow of the British Academy in 1994.[3] As a curator he was known for two important exhibitions mounted at the Tate Gallery in London; "Picasso: Sculptor/Painter" in 1994 and "Mattisse/ Picasso" in 2002–3, which then voyaged on to the Museum of Modern Art in New York City.[4]
