about
Photographer, collector, diarist, and writer of books Peter Beardhas fashioned his life into a work of art; the illustrated diaries he kept from a young age evolved into a serious career as an artist and earned him a central position in the international art world. He was painted byFrancis Bacon, painted on bySalvador Dal, and made diaries withAndy Warhol; he toured withTruman Capoteand theRolling Stones, created books withJacqueline OnassisandMick Jagger– all of whom are brought to life, literally and figuratively, in his work. As a fashion photographer, he took Vogue stars likeVeruschkato Africa and brought new ones – most notably Iman – back to the U.S. with him.
