Summary

David Hockney has been described as Britain's 'greatest living artist'. In this fascinating collection of archive interviews, we hear - in his own words - about his paintings, his schooldays and the attitudes he had while growing up. Hockney discusses the influence that his family had on him, as well as his passion for drawing and his work rate. He also touches on the importance of different types of medium, the different periods in his life - and his future.

Please note: due to the age and nature of this archive material, the sound quality may vary.

À bit of a rip-off

Much of the content of this (very short) audiobook I have heard before in the original interviews. Really poor value for money. Nothing new here 😒 thank goodness Mr. Hockey is so entertaining to listen to.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
