class=\"wp-block-heading\">From the SOCIETY OF ILLUSTRATORS<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There is an adage that an advertisement is only good if it sells. Hollywood, for example, is conscious of its need to attract the audience to the marquees first. Magazines, too, see this need to capture attention through their use of innovative artwork. Since the mid-1950\u2019s, art directors have recognized that Bob Peak\u2019s illustrations do these things. The list of his clients is extensive and reflects the versatility of his talent to bring eye-catching appeal to the product. With several techniques in his repertoire, each painstakingly perfected, he is always able to bring a fresh approach to a subject.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Born in Denver, Colorado in 1928, Bob spent his early years in Kansas and later earned an art degree form Wichita State University. After his military service, he also received a degree from the Art Center College of Design in Los Angeles. By this time his technical skill was evident and attracted a lucrative campaign from Old Hickory Whiskey. This was soon after his arrival in New York. The exposure, appearing weekly on the back covers of <em>Life<\/em> and<em> Look<\/em>, led to numerous assignments for <em>Esquire, American, Cosmopolitan <\/em>and other magazines. He continued to build a reputation in the advertising field with his illustrations for Puritan Sportswear, TWA, Coca-Cola, Owens-Illinois and Schaefer Beer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the 1960\u2019s, Bob\u2019s career flourished. The Artists Guild of New York named him \u201cArtist of the Year\u201d in 1961. This prestigious award, having originated the previous year, honors the top illustrators of the day. The Society of Illustrators Annual Exhibition has included Bob\u2019s work in each of its shows since the first exhibition in 1959 and he has been a frequent award winner. A member of the Society since 1961, he received their Hamilton King Award in 1968.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With over forty movie posters to his credit since he illustrated his first, West Side Story, in 1960, Bob has earned a Gold Medal (Camelot, Illustrators 10) and an Award of Excellence (Mame, Illustrators 17). <em>My Fair Lady, Rollerball, The Missouri Breaks, Islands in the Stream <\/em>and <em>The Spy Who Loved Me <\/em>are some of the other films for which he has produced the poster art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Peaks lived in a spacious studio on New York\u2019s Central Park South for several years before moving in 1963 to Greenwich, Connecticut. At first Bob worked in his personally designed studio there but later opened a studio in Westport. In 1976, the Illustrators Workshop was formed by Bob and fellow artists Alan E. Cober, Mark English, Bernie Fuchs, Bob Heindel and Fred Otnes. This unique study program offers intensive instruction sessions and seminars each summer.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{ &quot;core&quot;:\n\t\t\t\t{

been his ability to innovate, to present an unusual, arresting and dramatic aspect of an idea.\u201d His many exquisite techniques allow him the freedom to innovate. More than an artist of a singular style, he grows as he masters new perspectives and new dimensions. For Bob Peak has risen above the common preoccupation with style alone to concentrate on the artist\u2019s real function which he states simply: \u201cCan it Fly?\u201d His successful career answers this question affirmatively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/sanguinfineart.com\/gallery\/artists\/bob-peak\/#top\">back to TOP<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":141,"menu_order":12,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sanguinfineart.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/169"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sanguinfineart.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sanguinfineart.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sanguinfineart.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sanguinfineart.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=169"}],"version-history":[{"count":46,"href":"https:\/\/sanguinfineart.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/169\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5225,"href":"https:\/\/sanguinfineart.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/169\/revisions\/5225"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sanguinfineart.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/141"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sanguinfineart.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=169"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
