A celebration of sixty years of extraordinary creativity. The book offers a compelling narrative theme about the workings of a curious, intelligent, visually inventive mind in action. Hockney's story is filled with passion: a passion for seeing, a passion for storytelling, a passion for images. This art is a celebration of life. All his images—sometimes tender, as when depicting close friends and family, and other times playful, as in his works in the sun by the pool—capture what it means to be in the world and experience it. The ongoing exploration of how to communicate these experiences and perceptions through art emerges with particular clarity in this visually rich volume, which has been updated with a new final chapter focusing on his recent work in various media, such as the iPad. Capturing nearly sixty years of extraordinary creativity, the book is thematically organized to show the evolution and variety of Hockney’s prolific works, including paintings, drawings, watercolors, and photography. It also includes excerpts from the artist that illuminate the passion and deep thinking behind his work. "Hockney: Images" celebrates his lifelong experimental works in the ways of observing and depicting.
