(1972-1981) The Tempest

In the late 1970s, Beck immersed herself fully in Shakespeare's magical and valedictory play "The Tempest". She identified closely with the main protagonist, the exiled duke and master magician, Prospero, conceiving him as an artist who wields his magic wand similarly to how she as a painter wielded her magical brush to create and alter reality as she saw fit. Many of the "Tempest" works were set in Menemsha Cove, a lovely spot on the island of Martha's Vineyard, where Beck and her husband Robert spent time visiting friends. Martha's Vineyard proved to be a fertile source, and many of her Tempest scenes were explicitly set in particular favored locations on the island's western end, which locals call "Up Island."
