Expo : 2/7/2016 - 2/10/2016, Royal Academy of Art, London. This summer 2016 publication brings together the recent body of work by David Hockney, perhaps the most popular and versatile British artist of the last century. Following his sweeping exploration of landscape in the Royal Academy?s galleries in 2012, this focused display will look exclusively at the portraits he has been painting in the last few years ? the subjects of which are friends, family and art-world luminaries. After the sad events that touched his life in 2012, Hockney had stopped painting altogether. His move from Yorkshire to California coincided with his decision to revisit acrylic paints and bold colours. Vibrant, observant and full of life, these portraits mark a return to vivid, Technicolor form. Incisive text from Tim Barringer places these works within Hockney?s development as a portrait painter, while curator Edith Devaney interviews the artist about the series, which he describes as ?twenty-hour exposures?, in reference to the time each portrait takes to paint. The book will show the stages of each painting, from first to last mark, to give the reader a unique insight into Hockney?s working method.
DAVID HOCKNEY The Arrival of Spring in Normandy, 2020
, Bozar, Brussels / Royal Academy, 2021 HB, 250 x 175 mm, 160 p, 140 illustraties, Exhibition catalogue English edition. ISBN 9781912520640.
At the beginning of 2020, just as global Covid-19 restrictions were coming into force, the artist David Hockney was at his house, studio and garden in Normandy. From there, he witnessed the arrival of spring, and recorded the blossoming of the surrounding landscape on his iPad, a method of drawing he has been using for over a decade. Drawing outdoors was an antidote to the anxiety of the moment for Hockney - 'We need art, and I do think it can relieve stress,' he says. This uplifting publication - produced to accompany a major exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts - includes 116 of the new iPad drawings and shows to full effect Hockney's singular skill in capturing the exuberance of nature. The book begins with an interview with the show's curator, Edith Devaney, in which Hockney discusses his heralding of the spring.
Jasper Johns : Une forme de ressemblance avec le vrai
, Fonds Mercator 2017, 2017 Hardcover, 263 pages, Texte en Francais, 300 x 280 mm, Tres belle exemplaire ! Beaucoup illustrations de couleur,. ISBN 9789462301894.
Jasper Johns (b.1930) is regarded as one of the most influential American artists of the last sixty years. When he broke onto the New York art scene in the 1950s, Johns and his lover Robert Rauschenberg established a decisive new direction in an art world that had been dominated by the Abstract Expressionists. Johns's striking use of popular iconography, such as flags, numbers and maps, rendered with a distinctive textural, painterly surface, made a colossal impact. In this handsomely illustrated study, skilled writers examine Johns's pioneering oeuvre and offer a detailed overview of the career and international significance of this subtlest of craftsmen. This book accompanies the exhibition 'Jasper Johns', 23 September-10 December 2017, Royal Academy of Arts, London
