First new book on popular artist Beryl Cook for many years, to celebrate the centenary of her birth
I don’t know how my pictures happen, they just do. They exist, but for the life of me I can’t explain them.
Beryl Cook (1926–2008) is one of Britain’s most popular artists, renowned for her exuberant style and descriptions of everyday life. Her most enduring images are of larger-than-life women carousing in nightclubs, eating in cafés or enjoying ribald hen parties, rendered in graphic and colourful forms. She captures the spirit of the British ‘saucy seaside’ postcard.
She was a self taught artist and her work came to prominence in the mid-1970s when she quickly became one of Britain’s best-loved artists. Her distinctive works have an immediately recognisable style and are both celebratory and provocative. Her work has been collected by Jackie Collins, Whoopi Goldberg and Yoko Ono amongst others.
