Writers and critics Jess Wilder (co-director of Portal Gallery, London), Bernard Samuels (director of Plymouth Arts Centre, 1971-1996, who discovered and was the first to exhibit Cook), Edward Lucie-Smith (international art critic), Bernadette Casey (cultural writer) and Babs Horton (novelist, prize-winning author) offer a unique perspective on the self-taught artist and a critical reassessment of her place within British Art. Illustrations of early and rarely seen work from the Cook family home in Looe, sit alongside some of her instantly recognisable paintings.
