David Hockney by David Hockney

David Hockney

£45.00


A special, fiftieth-anniversary edition of David Hockney's witty, candid and revealing account of his life and work. 'David Hockney by David Hockney' was first published in 1976 and grew out of twenty-five hours of recorded conversation with the artist. A carefully crafted, collaborative memoir, this special full-colour edition marks the fiftieth anniversary of the book's first publication. Hockney recounts his early years in Bradford, where he was born, grew up and first went to art school; his years at the Royal College of Art in London, during which he had his breakthrough; his sojourn in California, which inspired some of his best-known paintings, drawings and prints; and his subsequent phase in Paris, where an exhibition at the Louvre established him as a 'continental master'.
