The artist and art dealer Basil Jonzen studied alongside Bernard Meninsky at the Central School of Arts and Crafts before finding great success with the Redfern Gallery which led his practice to France, Spain and the Canary Islands. During his career, Jonzen exhibited works at the New English Art Club, Tooth and the Royal Society of British Artists. Jonzen lectured in Edinburgh on his involvement with camouflage during the Second World War in Norway and Nigeria. With his wife the sculptor and teacher Karin Jonzen (1913-1967) he renovated Sir Hugh Lane's studio house in London, and together they held a Weekend Art Gallery. Later in life Jonzen worked with St George's Gallery, and his son Martin Jonzen also became a respected artist. The Arts Council holds a number of Jonzen's works.
