Book description
The Hockney Interviews brings together expansive conversations held between art world icon David Hockney, who is best known for his large scale, vivid paintings, and pre-eminent curator, Hans Ulrich Obrist. Since their meeting in 2006, when Obrist first visited Hockney at his London studio, the conversations span a 16-year period to the present day. Exploring Hockney's dedicated and prolific practice, his relationship with fellow artists 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 David Hockney, one of the world's most distinguished living artists. Fully illustrated with artworks spanning the breadth of Hockney's artistic career.
