This important volume includes essays by Simon Maidment, Martin Gayford, Li Bowen, Barbara Bolt and Edith Devaney, as well as a selection of David Hockney's extraordinary works. The book reflects Hockney's insatiable curiosity, a life's work based on risk-taking and experimentation. It will appeal to those familiar with David Hockney and inspire those new to his practice. |
