- The late British artist Beryl Cook is being honoured with a mile-long open-air installation at Bicester Village to mark what would have been her 100th birthday.
- Opening on Thursday 10 September, the display features life-size cutouts, large-scale murals, and a full-scale recreation of her 1996 painting Breakfast at Elvira’s.
- Organised in close collaboration with Cook’s family, the installation guides visitors to a House of Voltaire pop-up, where shoppers can purchase items from an exclusive capsule collection celebrating Cook.
- Her granddaughter Sophie Cook said: “My grandmother loved nothing more than watching people enjoy themselves, laugh and dress up. Seeing her characters come to life along the vibrant streets of the Village is the perfect, playful tribute to her life and work.”
- The project also marks the launch of a three-year partnership between Bicester Village and Studio Voltaire.
