Omschrijving
A new, compact edition of David Hockney and Martin Gayford’s brilliantly original book, with a revised final chapter and three entirely new Hockney artworks
'A magic flight of a book … It’s a measure of Hockney’s vividness of perception that he can always put a cap on Gayford’s knowledge … Fabulous!' - Clive James, Guardian
'Enormously good-humoured and entertaining… Hockney asks big questions about the nature of picture-making and the relationship between painters and photography in a way that no other contemporary artist seems to' - Andrew Marr, New Statesman
'An eloquent conversational testimony to the vividness of life lived through intelligent looking. You will see Caravaggio and Citizen Kane with fresh eyes' - Daily Telegraph
'Crisps up perceptions and help readers to look anew' - The Times
'Take a deep dive into [Hockney’s] truly remarkable brain … Riffing with friend and expert art historian Martin Gayford, Hockney draws upon the deep tissues that connect Disney and Hiroshige, Velázquez and Eisenstein, illuminating the power of the image with a mind-bendingly original light. It will transform your relationship to pictures' - AnOther
'Hockney and Gayford delve into how and why images are created, offering critical and creative insights throughout' - Aesthetica
'Serendipitous... beautifully illustrated with many hundreds of pictures and photographs, this lively exchange between two of our leading art exponents is both instructive and entertaining ' - Yorkshire Times
'Fascinating and eloquent' - Arts & Collections
'Groundbreaking' - Choice
'Absorbing and fascinating' - Shiny New Books
David Hockney is considered one of the most influential British artists of the 20th century. He has produced work in almost every medium - painting, drawing, stage design, photography and printmaking - and has stretched the boundaries of all of them. Born in Bradford, England, in 1937, Hockney attended art school in London before moving to Los Angeles in the 1960s. There, he painted his famous swimming pool paintings. In a 2011 poll of more than 1,000 British artists, Hockney was voted the most influential British artist of all time. He continues to create and exhibit art. Martin Gayford is art critic for The Spectator and the author of acclaimed books on Van Gogh, Constable and Michelangelo. He is the author of Man with a Blue Scarf, Rendez-vous with Art and A Bigger Message. He has collaborated with David Hockney on A Bigger Message and A History of Pictures, and has co-written a volume of travels and conversations with Philippe de Montebello: Rendez-vous with Art.
