Produktinformationen zu „David Hockney “
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 Academys 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 Hockneys 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 Hockneys working method.

Autoren-Porträt von Tim Barringer, Edith Devaney
David Hockney, geb. 1937 in England, ist einer der bedeutendsten zeitgenössischen Künstler. Der Wahlkalifornier, der in jungen Jahren die britische Kunstszene aufrüttelte, wird zu den Pionieren der Pop Art gezählt. Durch seine Auseinandersetzung mit den Möglichkeiten der Kamera gilt Hockney heute als Erneuerer der Fotokunst. Neben Gemälden schuf der Künstler eine große Anzahl von Zeichnungen, Radierungen und Bühnenbildern.
