Joue Avec David Hockney ! Joue avec David Hockney ! Illustré par Inspiré par le monde qui l’entoure, David Hockney recourt à l’art pour répondre à ces questions : savons-nous vraiment à quoi ressemblent les choses ? Audacieux Hockney naît à Bradford, au Royaume-Uni, en 1937. Il se prend de passion pour l’art dès son plus jeune âge, influencé par des artistes comme Picasso et Matisse. Il fréquente d’abord la Bradford Grammar School, puis étudie au Regional College of Art, à Bradford, avant d’être admis au prestigieux Royal College of Art à Londres. En 1964, il quitte le Royaume-Uni, en quête d’un lieu nouveau et stimulant. Coloré Il atterrit finalement dans le décor ensoleillé de Los Angeles, aux États-Unis. Tout au long de sa carrière, Hockney a expérimenté différentes formes d’art, comme les portraits, les paysages, les photocollages, les décors de théâtre et les dessins sur IPad. Il a réalisé un grand nombre d’œuvres très belles et on le considère Curieux comme l’un des artistes britanniques les plus importants du vingtième siècle. Pour peindre, il te faut recourir à trois outils : Ta main Tes yeux Ton cœur Des collines vallonnées du Yorkshire au cadre clair et lumineux de Los Angeles, Compare ces deux peintures : quels sont leurs points communs ? Hockney a toujours été attiré par les différents paysages qui l’entouraient. En quoi sont-elles différentes ? Laquelle préfères-tu et pourquoi ? Avec son arrière-plan qui ressemble à une carte, Outpost Drive, Hollywood donne à voir les vastes espaces ouverts de Los Angeles. Garrowby Hill est une peinture vibrante et colorée de la campagne du Yorkshire. Quels sont tes endroits préférés ? Pourquoi ne pas les peindre ou les dessiner ?

  • In David Hockney's Early Paintings (1964-1972)
    Selective Preparation of Canvas as an 'Artistic Device' in David Hockney's Early Paintings (1964-1972). Impact of This Hybrid Priming Technique on Perception by the Viewer, with a Particular Focus on Portrait of an Artist (Pool with Two Figures) and Mt. Fuji and Flowers Hannah De Corte1 Abstract: In the mid 1960s and early 1970s, David Hockney opted for a particular application of primer in the ground layers of some of his paintings – that is, a partial or 'selective' type of preparation. By selectively preparing certain areas with one or more layers of (gesso) priming, Hockney introduced a slightly higher and white pictorial plane in selected areas whilst retaining the properties of raw canvas in others. In one of Hockney's most discussed paintings, Portrait of an Artist (Pool with Two Figures), for instance, selective preparation divided the surface and set the stage from the ground up. This paper examines the impact of this highly original and hybrid formula on perception by the viewer, focusing on how the eye registers the change in properties of the paint layer. It outlines Hockney's investigation of the primed/unprimed opposition through the use of selective preparation, and the variety of effects it allowed him to achieve in one canvas. From its anecdotal use in 1960s road trip paintings to its more pronounced use in pool paintings in which Hockney used unprimed canvas to convey the 'wetness' of water, selective preparation was a device for him to compellingly increase contrasts and tension. Far from producing mere formal effects or serving solely as citations (of stain paintings for instance), the perceived technical oddity produces meaning.

  • Fotografia I Film W Praktyce Artystycznej Oraz Propozycjach Teoretycznych Davida Hockneya
    PIOTR ZAWOJSKI FOTOGRAFIA I FILM W PRAKTYCE ARTYSTYCZNEJ ORAZ PROPOZYCJACH TEORETYCZNYCH DAVIDA HOCKNEYA Zbadaj wpierw wiedzę, potem weź się do praktyki, zrodzonej z wiedzy. Praktyka musi być zawsze zbudowana na podstawie dobrej teorii, do której perspektywa jest przewodniczką i bramą i bez niej nie zdziałasz nic dobrego w dziedzinie malarstwa1. Leonardo da Vinci Czy fotografia sprawia, że świat wydaje się nijaki? Tak uważam, gdyż fotografia różni się od człowieka. Aparat widzi świat w zgodzie z zasadami geometrii, a my – psychologii2. David Hockney Camerę uważa się powszechnie i niesłusznie za wynalazek dziewiętnastowieczny. Camera nie jest jednak wynalazkiem, jest zjawiskiem przyrodniczym. Rzutowanie optyczne może nastąpić w sposób zupełnie naturalny przez szparę w żaluzji okiennej przyciemnionego pokoju. Camera obscura oznacza dosłownie „ciemny pokój”. Nie potrzeba tu ani soczewek, ani luster, chociaż rzutowany obraz będzie ciemny lub nieostry, albo ciemny i nieostry równocześnie. Przy użyciu soczewki umocowanej w większym otworze, obraz będzie jaśniejszy i może być bardzo ostry. Wynalazek fotografii oznaczał w istocie wynalezienie chemikaliów, dzięki którym rzutowaną scenę można było zatrzymać wewnątrz camery. Ale obrazy rzutowane w camerach oglądano przez setki lat, zanim to się stało. Jeżeli zrozumiemy, dlaczego to jest takie ważne, zrozumiemy też różnicę między oglądaniem świata w trzech wymiarach i oglądaniem przedstawień świata w dwóch wymiarach3.

A swimming pool. • Do you think this place is where we are, the UK? Why not? The palm trees make it look like it’s somewhere more exotic – and the fact that it is an outdoors pool. • Are there any people in the painting? If so, where? There must be someone in the water because we can see a splash. Are they still there? Yes – splashes do not last long so if the splash is there then the person is too. • How did they get into the pool? Probably from the diving board. • Can we hear anything? Paintings do not make noise… but that is one of the great things about looking at them. We have to imagine the sound in our heads. So, after “three,” make the noise and action of a big splash. • What is the weather like? How do we know? It must be sunny and hot. Even though we cannot see the sun we can see that the sky is clear and blue, there are palm trees and there is a shadow under the chair. And of course most people who swim outside do it on a hot day! • Hold up your pretend paintbrushes and show everyone how you think the artist painted the splash. Was it fast or slow? Messy or neat? Every artist paints in a different way.

  • David Hockney: a Bigger Splash in California Steven Miller 28/29 June, 2017
    Art Appreciation Lecture Series 2017 Site Specific: The power of place David Hockney: a bigger splash in California Steven Miller 28/29 June, 2017 Lecture summary: We shall not cease from our exploration And the end of all our exploring Will be to arrive where we started And know the place for the first time These verses from the last of T. S. Eliot’s Four Quartets could be used to describe David Hockney’s journey as a painter of the landscape. Born in the north of England, he moved to California in his mid-twenties and made it his base for the next 50 years. The images he painted there, particularly in the 1960s and 1970s, are regarded as some of his most successful and distinctive works, ‘the extraordinary achievement’, as one critic wrote, of the ‘provincial Englishman who has created a widely accepted image of Los Angeles and has made southern Californians look with new eyes at their own environment.’ However, in recent years Hockney has become one of the most lyrical painters of his native Yorkshire landscape; a part of the world that he could not escape from quickly enough as a young artist. This lecture will focus on Hockney’s ‘splash and pool years’, where he captured the bright, modern and affluent world of Los Angeles, and explore how the works he created at this time have laid the ground for this return to his roots and the remarkable works that are making him the greatest painter of the Yorkshire landscape since Turner.

  • How One Obscure David Hockney Painting Encapsulates the Greatness of His Work
    How One Obscure David Hockney Painting Encapsulates the Greatness of His Work The hints of doubt in the artist's paradise are what make the great works last. Ben Davis, December 13, 2017 David Hockney, Rubber Ring in a Swimming Pool (1971). Image: Ben Davis. The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s big, popular David Hockney retrospective is more than worth your time. As far as I can tell, however, what it reveals is that the conventional opinion of the beloved British painter is basically the right one. His most famous works are also his best works, specifically the late -1960s, early-‘70s cycle making of Los Angeles’s artificial oasis an achieved, if slightly remote, paradise of gay desire. Since that’s not, maybe, the biggest reveal, I will focus on a single work from Hockney’s golden period to try and explain why: Rubber Ring in a Swimming Pool, from 1971. But first, a word about the later works, for contrast. Hockney is about as famous as an artist can be. He has now for decades occupied a role in the British art narrative, that of the Great Painter, that critics very desperately want to have filled. When I see his late paintings, that’s what I see. Their subject matter is the serenely mythologized stuff of Great Painting. In this show, you get a lot of landscapes and interiors—or, in some cases, a combination of the two, as in the final series here, rendering the view from the veranda of his LA home in unmixed Matissian blues and greens.
