German-Jewish émigré Peter Baer settled in England with his family in 1936, studying at the Central School of Arts and Crafts (1948–1950). In the 1950s, he was associated with the ‘Kitchen Sink’ movement, exhibited at the Beaux-Arts Gallery and made etchings at Birgit Skiöld’s celebrated Print Workshop in Charlotte Street. He went on to work for the Curwen Press and became an influential and inspirational teacher of printmaking at Hammersmith (later Chelsea) School of Art (1970–1989). 'Walking About' demonstrates his inventive transformation of the urban landscape through the medium of print.
