, Abrams, 2020 Paperback, 370 pages, ENG. edition, 240 x 165 mm, NEW, richly illustrated in color / b/w. ISBN 9781419750281.
A compact edition of Hockney and Gayford?s brilliantly original book, with updated material and brand-new pieces of art Informed and energized by a lifetime of painting, drawing, and making images with cameras, David Hockney, in collaboration with art critic Martin Gayford, explores how and why pictures have been made across the millennia. Juxtaposing a rich variety of images?a still from a Disney cartoon with a Japanese woodblock print by Hiroshige, a scene from an Eisenstein film with a Velazquez paint ing?the authors cross the normal boundaries between high culture and popular entertainment, and argue that film, photography, paint ing, and drawing are deeply interconnected. Featuring a revised final chapter with some of Hockney?s latest works, this new, compact edition of A History of Pictures remains a significant contribution to the discussion of how artists represent reality. David Hockney is one of the world?s most popular painters and the author of the bestselling Secret Knowledge: Rediscovering the Lost Techniques of the Old Masters (2001). Martin Gayford is an art critic and the author of many books, including Man with a Blue Scarf: On Sitting for a Portrait by Lucian Freud (2013) and Rendez-vous with Art, with Philippe de Montebello (2014).
World According to David Hockney
London, Thames & Hudson, 2024 Illustrated hardcover, 176 pages, 17 x 12 cm, english text. *New. ISBN 9780500027042.
A collection of legendary British artist David Hockney?s insights into art, life, nature, creativity and much more. ?I?ve always been a looker ... that?s what artists do? This anthology of quotations by David Hockney follows in the successful format of ?The World According to? series. Ranging across topics including drawing, photography, nature, creativity, the internet and much more, The World According to David Hockney offers a delightful and engaging overview of the artist?s inimitable spirit, personality and opinions. From everyday observations ? ?The eye is always moving; if it isn?t moving you are dead? ? to artistic insights such as ?painted colour always will be better than printed colour, because it is the pigment itself?, as well as musings on other image makers, including Caravaggio, C zanne and Hokusai, Hockney has a knack for capturing profound truths in pithy statements. 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, and since then has embraced a range of media including photocollage, video and digital technologies. In a 2011 poll of more than 1,000 British artists, Hockney was voted the most influential British artist of all time. Presented as a beautifully designed and attractive package, illustrated with works of art from throughout Hockney's career, this is the perfect gift for art lovers everywhere.
On ne reporte pas le printemps, David Hockney en normandie.
<meta charset="utf-8"><span data-mce-fragment="1">À l'aube de ses quatre-vingts ans, David Hockney a recherché pour la première fois la tranquillité à la campagne, un lieu où observer le coucher du soleil et le changement des saisons, un endroit où tenir à distance la folie du monde. Ainsi, lorsque la Covid-19 et le confinement ont frappé, cela n'a pas changé grand-chose à la vie à La Grande Cour, la ferme normande plusieurs fois centenaire où Hockney avait installé son atelier un an auparavant.</span><br data-mce-fragment="1"><br data-mce-fragment="1"><i data-mce-fragment="1">On ne reporte pas le printemps</i><span data-mce-fragment="1">est un manifeste qui célèbre la capacité de l'art à divertir et à inspirer. Il s'appuie sur une multitude de conversations et de correspondances inédites entre David Hockney et le critique d'art Martin Gayford, son ami et collaborateur de longue date. Leurs échanges sont illustrés par une sélection de peintures et de dessins inédits réalisés par l'artiste sur son iPad en Normandie, en lien avec des œuvres de Van Gogh, Monet, Brueghel et d'autres encore.</span><br data-mce-fragment="1"><br data-mce-fragment="1"><span data-mce-fragment="1">Constamment poussé à aller de l'avant par son enthousiasme contagieux et son sens de l'émerveillement, à contre-courant depuis toujours, mais très populaire depuis soixante ans, Hockney ne se préoccupe pas de l'opinion des critiques. Totalement absorbé par son environnement et les thèmes qui le fascinent depuis des décennies: la lumière, la couleur, l'espace, la perception, l'eau, les arbres, il a beaucoup à nous apprendre, non seulement sur notre façon de voir... mais aussi sur notre façon de vivre.</span><br data-mce-fragment="1"> PARIS, 2021 SEUIL 280 p., Cartonnage éditeur. 160 x 230 mm
