John Cooper Clarke: Archive Photos of a Poet Laureate

You'll normally find this Salford born artist on a stage holding a book in front of an audience as the performance poet that he is, but his persona is still activated outside the stage and on photoshoots.

Join us on the day of his birthday to look through pictures taken by photographers that knew how to capture the legendary singer-songwriter on his environment. Colm Henry, Eamonn O'Doyle, Terry Lott, Jim Lennox, Siobhan Heffernan and Simon Reeves are among the snappers who had Mr. Clarke in front of the camera. Happy Birthday John Cooper Clarke!
