内容介绍

大卫-霍克尼（David Hockney）是一位具有严肃审美目标的当代艺术家，他享有巨大的、也许是无与伦比的公众知名度：一头染成金色的头发、

一副眼镜、腼腆的学生式笑容，这些都是通过大众媒体和艺术界期刊为人们所熟知的。彼得-克罗蒂尔（Peter Clothier）在这本简洁而全面的综述中，

以敏锐的眼光和优雅的笔触，捕捉到了他引人入胜的个性、古怪但总能给人启迪的艺术观念，以及他在图像和技术方面取之不尽的创造力，

从油画到摄影再到传真，无所不包。

从早期的戏剧性油画到近期的摄影拼贴画和歌剧布景设计，霍克尼一直在应对大规模的空间挑战。与此同时，他的大部分作品都献给了他*珍爱的事物--朋友、

家人、家和工作室。他是一位博学多才的知识分子，也是一位周游世界的旅行家，虽然他的家在好莱坞，但他仍然珍视自己在布拉德福德的根--

1937 年他出生的英国北部小镇。

发明创造是霍克尼艺术创作的原动力，在很大程度上就是游戏： "他曾评论说："如果艺术不具有游戏性，那就什么都不是"。

这本色彩丰富的画册生动清晰地传达了霍克尼对艺术创作的认真态度，让创作者和观众都感到愉悦。

For a contemporary artist of serious aesthetic purpose, David Hockney enjoys immense, perhaps unequaled public visibility: the shock of dyed 

blond hair, the owlish glasses, and the shy, schoolboy grin are known as much through the popular press as through the journals of the art world. 

His engaging personality, his quirky but always enlightening ideas about art, and his inexhaustible inventiveness both of imagery 

and of techniques ranging from oil painting to photography to faxes are captured by Peter Clothier with clear-eyed intelligence and grace in this 

concise but comprehensive overview.

From his theatrical early canvases to his more recent photographic collages and operatic set designs, Hockney has tackled the 

challenge of space on a grand scale. At the same time, much of his work has been devoted to the things most dear to him-friends, family, 

home, and studio. An intellectual of wide-ranging erudition and a world traveler who makes his home in Hollywood, he still 

cherishes his roots in Bradford, the northern British town where he was born in 1937.

Invention, the driving force behind Hockney's art, is in good part play: "If art isn't playful," he once commented, "it's nothing." This illuminating, 

color-rich volume conveys with vivid clarity Hockney's serious delight in making art that gives pleasure to both its creator and its audience.
