Perhaps the most surprising snippet in Marc-Christoph Wagner's interview with Peter Cook is the latter's assertion that he was "really not a good drawer" — a "painful drawer" even — in architecture school. Art school improved his drawings, he admits, though even now, at the age of 85, he says he's "still not fluent" at drawing. That's a modest assertion when looking at the impressive, colorful drawings assembled as part of Peter Cook – City Landscapes, some of them shown in this 15-minute film.
 


Peter Cook – City Landscapes is on display at Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Humlebæk, Denmark, from January 21 to May 8, 2022.
