Past Live
A poetic and artistic meditation on TV; comics; music; film; food; love and sex and the adverts in between.
Originally published as a limited edition in 2015, now available to a wider audience (2023 edition).
This selection of enthralling and eerie works reflects an electronic environment that comprises everything from the Sex Pistols to T.S. Eliot and 1970s Marvel comics. Along the way, Andrew Cocktoe aims to ‘pull apart modern art in the guise of modern art.'
A two-part book that is by turns satirical and cerebral, the first section is a stylishly illustrated transmedia exploration of time, memory, memes and Mysterons.
Part two delves into the back catalogue of Cocktoe's searingly visceral, universally themed ouevre, in the form of poetry, art, comics and prose, again in the company of collaborator, artist and designer Simon Russell, amongst others.
A long-standing underground and zine publisher, Andrew Cocktoe (writing as Andrew Cottingham) is the author of two 'pretend books for children': Winderbilt over Floodsville and Mr Winderbilt and the Modern Conveyance.
