About the Item

Six Fairy Tales by David Hockney David Hockney This exquisite, highly collectable volume was printed in 1970 by Petersburg Press. Inscribed "Xmas to you from the Grouse" perhaps by Hockney himself. The book features extraordinary etchings by David Hockney which re-imagine the stories of the Brothers Grimm for a modern audience. Although inspired by earlier illustrators of the tales, from Arthur Rackham to Edmund Dulac, Hockney's art captures these strange and supernatural stories for a modern audience. The book brings together some well-known tales - Rapunzel, Rumpelstiltskin - with others that are less familiar. 64 pages with 39 illustrations throughout.

David Hockney Portraits by Sarah Howgate & Barbara Stern Shapiro (Book)
Located in North Yorkshire, GB
David Hockney is one of the most significant artists exploring and pushing the boundaries of figurative art today. He has been engaged with portraiture since his teenage years, when he painted Portrait of My Father (1955), and portraits of family, lovers, friends and well-known subjects represent an intimate visual diary of the artist's life. This authoritative new study examines Hockney's portraits in all media - painting, drawing, photocollage and prints - and is produced in close collaboration with the artist. Together, the authors reveal how Hockney's creative development and concerns about representation can be traced through his portrait work: from his iconic double portraits of the late 1960s and early 1970s to his cubist-influenced investigations of the 1980s and from his recent camera lucida...
