Hockney's People by Marco Livingston & Kay Heymer (Book)
About the Item
Every since he made his first portraits and self-portraits at the age of sixteen, David Hockney has been fascinated by people "the human clay," as W. H. Auden put it, and how that have been represented throughout the history of art. As much as any other artist in recent yeas, he has embraced, invigorated, and often subverted traditional portraiture, making it a central concern of his art.
Through a careful selection of works both iconic and previously unpublished, this book explores the many ways in which Hockney has depicted the people around him, be they famous names such as Andy Warhol, Christopher Isherwood, and W. H. Auden of lifelong friends such as Henry Geldzahler and Celia Birtwell, among many others. It tells the story of the artist's relationship with family, friends, and lovers, illustrated by works ranging from intimate and frequently moving studies of his parents and partners to his recent large-scale double portraits in watercolour.
revealing and always touching, Hockney's People is both a unique record of the life and loves of one of the world's best-known artists and a valuable glimpse of the moment when life and art meet. 233 colour and 13 black and white illustrations. 240 pages. 1720 grams.

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...

Title: The Food of France
Publisher: Whitecap Books
Publication Date: 2001
Binding: Hardcover
Condition: Good

Synopsis:
When one thinks of great food, one invariably thinks of France. After all, this is the birthplace of some of the world's greatest chefs, such as Auguste D'Escoffier, and a major influence on many others, such as Julia Child. THE FOOD OF FRANCE is the second in a series of richly photographed cookbooks that examines the food of different countries. Lush images and information on France and its internationally renowned gastronomic culture make this book much more than a cookbook. Pictorial essays presented in gatefold spreads highlight food journeys that share the traditions behind France's best-known exports, including cheese and pastries. A glossary of French food...
