Alphabet A - Z, Art Book
A-Z Series by Peter Blake - Born from Peter Blake’s lifelong fascination with letters, fonts, and typography, the A-Z Series is a captivating exploration of the alphabet as both an artistic form and a personal passion. Blake, whose early exposure to graphic design fueled his love for typography, uses this series to merge his love for collecting letters and imagery, all while navigating the structured and finite confines of the A to Z format.
This series offers a playful yet disciplined look at how the seemingly simple elements of the alphabet can be transformed into dynamic and visually rich art. The rigorous limits of the A to Z structure provide a perfect balance for Blake to delve deep into his creative process, allowing each letter to stand alone yet come together as part of a cohesive whole.
Blake’s early graphic design education, coupled with his years of experimentation at the Royal College of Art, laid the foundation for this unique approach. The result is a work that speaks to the history and beauty of typography, as well as Blake’s continuing exploration of popular culture, graphic imagery, and visual expression.

About the artist
Heralded as the ‘Godfather of Pop Art’, Sir Peter Blake was knighted in 2002 for his invaluable contribution to contemporary art.
Blake began his career creating collages from photographs, cigarette packets and matchboxes. This new approach to the creation of visual art – taking found imagery from Pop culture – was spearheaded in Britain by Blake and continues to inspire contemporary artists today.
Best known for creating the iconic cover to the Beatles’ 1967 album ‘Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band’, Blake continues to produce work that draws extensively on elements from popular cultures around the world.
