Stuart Sutcliffe
A Retrospective
Edited by Matthew
Clough and Colin Fallows
“Stu was more than just the bass
player – he was like our art director”
George Harrison
“He (Stuart) was an outstanding loss
to Liverpool and to English painting, and over and above the merit of his
pictures he has a special significance as somebody whose burning creativity
switched from art into pop music and then back again. He showed the way.”
John Willett
Stuart
Sutcliffe (1940–62) was more than just ‘the fifth Beatle’. He was the original
bass player and the creative catalyst behind their style and image (from
creating the name of the band with Lennon to inspiring the original ‘mop top’).
With contributions from Stuart’s lover and the acclaimed photographer Astrid
Kirchherr, eminent art historian Donald Kuspitt and writer John Savage (author
of England’s
Dreaming: Sex Pistols and Punk Rock)
among others, as well as previously unseen images of Stuart and The Beatles, Stuart
Sutcliffe: A Retrospective provides a highly personal and visually stunning
celebration of the man, his music and his art.
