David Hockney (b. 9.07.1937)

[LCR]

I have deliberately restricted this plot showing Hockney painting, but neobhodimo say that since 1976, the artist willingly uses the technique of photomontage, based on the use of many photographs taken on Polaroid - he did have something like mozaikm: Hockney attracted to the idea of seeing the world as if from window. In addition, he deals with a lot of graphics, including the lottery - lithographs, etchings. He worked as a theater artist, in particular, designed the opera for the festival in Glayndberne and for the Metropolitan Opera in New York. Since the 1980's. Hockney began researching new technology - photocopying, faxing - it attracted, in particular, that risugki sent them to friends via fax, lack of commercial value - so, these technologies make it possible to make art accessible to everyone.

In the work of Hockney, in my opinion, one can trace a variety of influences - have already spoken of Paul - from the French impressionist and post-impressionism (Bonnard!) To American realism (Hopper) and naive art of Haiti, but a well-digested and meaningful. Based on these influences he managed to form a rich and quirky, easily recognized style. I was attracted by the ingenuity and sincerity of the artist of great culture, that he would never rest on our laurels and do not hesitate to change your style.

And, in conclusion, quote:
"If the love of beauty, you are ready to cheat and deceive, you know, you - the artist!"

In general, see the pictures.
