Bernard Cohen – ‘It’s a Matter of Dancing with Chaos’ | TateShots

Bernard Cohen is a British artist whose paintings tell stories about everyday existence and experience. Often described as an abstract artist, he explains why he does not consider his paintings to be abstract.

At his home in London, he shows us his sketchbooks and talks about the importance of drawing as a lifelong activity. He explains how he uses his drawings as a way of going back in time, often using a drawing from an old sketchbook as the starting point for a new painting.
