Description
by David Hockney (Artist), Hans Ulrich Obrist (Author)
Conversations that explore the work, life and practices of a legendary painter
British painter David Hockney (born 1937) is one of the most influential artists of the 20th and 21st centuries. In addition to being an important contributor to the Pop art movement of the 1960s, he is also renowned as a printmaker, stage designer and photographer. In 1964, Hockney moved to Los Angeles, where, famously, he was inspired to make a series of vibrantly colored paintings of swimming pools in the comparatively new acrylic medium.
This volume brings together conversations held between this art-world icon and preeminent curator Hans Ulrich Obrist, which began with their first meeting in 2006 at Hockney's London studio. Exploring the artist's dedicated and prolific practice, his friendships with Andy Warhol and Francis Bacon, fervent preoccupation with painting nature, ruminations on new technologies and his love of smoking, Hockney's musings are as bold and varied as his work.
The Hockney Interviews is a hardback reading book and intimate portrait of one of the world's most distinguished living artists, fully illustrated with artworks spanning the breadth of his career.
