克利斯多夫•库克（Christopher Cook) 出生于英国约克郡。 早期在英国爱克塞特大学就读文学与美术，后又获得伦敦英国皇家美术学院绘画专业研究生学位。
库克曾作为意大利政府专邀学者，在博罗涅尔进行了三年的创作实践。在此期间，参加了卡萨马萨鞒的“敖尔比的厄尔斯女神”展，以及于佛罗伦萨举办的“从培根到现在”的展览。1991年至1993年，库克先后于德国法兰克福与英国牛津大学任客座艺术家。1994年，他被评为美国加州大学杰出访问艺术家，作品入选英国／洛杉矶艺术节，并代表英国参加了法国卡克尼斯绘画双年展以及在曼谷举行的欧盟艺术展。
He studied Literature and Fine Art at the University of Exeter, UK, and MA Painting at the Royal College of Art, London. He spent three years in Bologna as Italian Government scholar, exhibiting in Eros in Albion at the Casa Masaccio and From Bacon to Now at the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence. Between 1991-93 he was Guest Artist at the Stadelschule in Frankfurt, Germany and Visiting Fellow to the University of Oxford, and in 1994 became Distinguished Visiting Artist to CalState University Long Beach, exhibiting in the UK/LA festival, and representing the UK at the Cagnes Painting Biennale, France and the European Union exhibition in Bangkok.
1995年与1997年间，三次较长时间的印度采风之旅促使库克对自己的艺术创作进行了重新思考。 他早期作品中常用的色彩逐渐消失，而目前我们所看到的以黑白为主的石墨系列也由此时产生并慢慢成形。库克的初期石墨系列作品曾获得利物浦XX1约翰•摩尔斯奖。大量作品曾在挪威，德国和美国等国家的主要大型艺术展中展出。
Between 1995 to 1997 three extended research visits to India led to a rethink of his work, from which the ‘graphites’ appeared, and colour has not returned since. An early graphite was prize winner at John Moores Liverpool XX1 and others have been the subject of major group and solo shows in Norway, Germany and the USA.
自1998年起，库克被任命为英国普利茅斯大学绘画系讲师。2000年出版了他的个人诗集《为自然，反对自然》。为深入这一主题，库克在基金支助下走访了澳大利亚布戴农自然保护区，随后又在英国文化委员会支持下成为英国西南部伊甸园生态工程的特邀驻地艺术家。在长达两年的驻地创作期间，他开始试验一些与生物基因，自然组织系统相关的大型绘画作品。2004年起，库克的个人艺术展在美国的四大美术馆巡回展出。2005年十一月，其作品又于日本横滨艺术三年展中展出。
In 1998 Cook was appointed Reader in Painting at the University of Plymouth. Following publication of his selected poems: For and Against Nature in 2000, he travelled on a scholarship to the Bundanon Trust in Australia, and later that year began a two year Arts Council of England residency at the Eden Project in Cornwall UK, where some of the larger images relating to genetics and self-organising systems began, along with material for his latest artist's book a thoroughbred golden calf. In 2004/05 a major survey show supported by the British Council toured four venues in the USA.
