Josef Paul Hodin (17 August 1905, Prague – 6 December 1995, London) was a Czech art historian who in 1954 won the first international prize for art criticism at the Venice Biennale for his work on Surrealism and Francis Bacon. Hodin obtained his Doctorate at Charles University in Prague and moved to London during World War II to work as a press attaché to the Norwegian government-in-exile. His work was characterised by strong psychological analysis of the artist's character and an interest in geistesgeschichte and the zeitgeist. Hodin was a specialist in modern art and this is reflected in his published works. His papers are in the archive of the Tate Gallery.
