克利斯多夫?庫(kù)克(Christopher Cook) 出生于英國(guó)約克郡。 早期在英國(guó)愛克塞特大學(xué)就讀文學(xué)與美術(shù),后又獲得倫敦英國(guó)皇家美術(shù)學(xué)院繪畫專業(yè)研究生學(xué)位。
庫(kù)克曾作為意大利政府專邀學(xué)者,在博羅涅爾進(jìn)行了三年的創(chuàng)作實(shí)踐。在此期間,參加了卡薩馬薩鞒的“敖爾比的厄爾斯女神”展,以及于佛羅倫薩舉辦的“從培根到現(xiàn)在”的展覽。1991年至1993年,庫(kù)克先后于德國(guó)法蘭克福與英國(guó)牛津大學(xué)任客座藝術(shù)家。1994年,他被評(píng)為美國(guó)加州大學(xué)杰出訪問藝術(shù)家,作品入選英國(guó)/洛杉磯藝術(shù)節(jié),并代表英國(guó)參加了法國(guó)卡克尼斯繪畫雙年展以及在曼谷舉行的歐盟藝術(shù)展。
He studied Literature and Fine Art at the University of Exeter, UK, and MA Painting at the Royal College of Art, London. He spent three years in Bologna as Italian Government scholar, exhibiting in Eros in Albion at the Casa Masaccio and From Bacon to Now at the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence. Between 1991-93 he was Guest Artist at the Stadelschule in Frankfurt, Germany and Visiting Fellow to the University of Oxford, and in 1994 became Distinguished Visiting Artist to CalState University Long Beach,? exhibiting in the UK/LA festival, and representing the UK at the Cagnes Painting Biennale, France and the European Union exhibition in Bangkok.
1995年與1997年間,三次較長(zhǎng)時(shí)間的印度采風(fēng)之旅促使庫(kù)克對(duì)自己的藝術(shù)創(chuàng)作進(jìn)行了重新思考。 他早期作品中常用的色彩逐漸消失,而目前我們所看到的以黑白為主的石墨系列也由此時(shí)產(chǎn)生并慢慢成形。庫(kù)克的初期石墨系列作品曾獲得利物浦XX1約翰?摩爾斯獎(jiǎng)。大量作品曾在挪威,德國(guó)和美國(guó)等國(guó)家的主要大型藝術(shù)展中展出。
Between 1995 to 1997 three extended research visits to India led to a rethink of his work, from which the ‘graphites’ appeared, and colour has not returned since. An early graphite was prize winner at John Moores Liverpool XX1 and others have been the subject of major group and solo shows in Norway, Germany and the USA.
自1998年起,庫(kù)克被任命為英國(guó)普利茅斯大學(xué)繪畫系講師。2000年出版了他的個(gè)人詩(shī)集《為自然,反對(duì)自然》。為深入這一主題,庫(kù)克在基金支助下走訪了澳大利亞布戴農(nóng)自然保護(hù)區(qū),隨后又在英國(guó)文化委員會(huì)支持下成為英國(guó)西南部伊甸園生態(tài)工程的特邀駐地藝術(shù)家。在長(zhǎng)達(dá)兩年的駐地創(chuàng)作期間,他開始試驗(yàn)一些與生物基因,自然組織系統(tǒng)相關(guān)的大型繪畫作品。2004年起,庫(kù)克的個(gè)人藝術(shù)展在美國(guó)的四大美術(shù)館巡回展出。2005年十一月,其作品又于日本橫濱藝術(shù)三年展中展出。
In 1998 Cook was appointed Reader in Painting at the University of Plymouth. Following publication of his selected poems: For and Against Nature in 2000, he travelled on a scholarship to the Bundanon Trust in Australia, and later that year began a two year Arts Council of England residency at the Eden Project in Cornwall UK, where some of the larger images relating to genetics and self-organising systems began, along with material for his latest artist's book a thoroughbred golden calf. In 2004/05 a major survey show supported by the British Council toured four venues in the USA.
