Another great video ! I always look forward to them. I wonder if you could possible do a talk on another great artist Gerhard Richter ? Thanks for your work on these.
Hockney seems to break new ground using different media showing the interpretation of what is being seen . I also liked the TV programs of secret knowledge.
Dr. Shafe, a very engaging discussion of David Hockney. I have to admit that I much prefer his paintings in the sixties to his later work. Did I hear you say "an illusion to Cliff Richard" when discussing two boys clinging? Allusion, rather? This work would not be out of place in a 1980's gallery, very evocative of Basquiat who was perhaps a "fan" of Hockney? Anyway, I think his recent digital work is quite frankly rubbish. The work he did in California in the sixties has stood the test but I think that for decades now, he has become a brand and his market is driven by his past achievements. I suppose this is always the case if you live long enough? Thank you for another fine presentation.

i used to see him frequently at los angeles opera. i also attended his tristan und isolde designed opera. he seemed very approachable.
