David Hockney would agree with Jean Dubuffet when he says that art is as necessary as bread for human beings. Without bread, Dubuffet says, they starve; without art, they die of boredom.\"  \nAntonio Muñoz Molina, Babelia, El Pais  \n\n\"The history of images begins in caves and ends, for now, on the computer screen. Who knows where it will go in the future? Nevertheless, the challenge remains the same: how to represent the three-dimensional world on a two-dimensional surface.\"  \nDavid Hockney  \n\nWith the experience and enthusiasm of a lifetime dedicated to painting, drawing, and creating images with cameras, David Hockney—in an engaging conversation with art critic Martin Gayford—explores how and why images have been created throughout the millennia. By juxtaposing a rich variety of images, the authors cross the usual boundaries between high culture and popular entertainment and establish unexpected connections across time and different media. With a revised final chapter featuring some of Hockney’s latest works, this critically acclaimed book invites us to see those paintings we already know as if we were contemplating them for the first time.  \n\nWITH 310 ILLUSTRATIONS","brand":"Siruela","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55302217007448,"sku":"LIB-UN-SI-74","price":28.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/8464\/0856\/files\/una-historia-de-las-imagenes-david-hockney-y-martin-gayford-8336910.jpg?v=1761780186"},{"product_id":"david-hockney-my-window-xl","title":"David Hockney. My Window (XL)","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhen David Hockney discovered the iPhone as a new medium, it opened up entirely new artistic possibilities for him. The screen offered pure tones for an especially nuanced depiction of pure light. In the spring of 2009, he created his first digital drawings, in which he portrayed the morning landscape with bold lines and shimmering colors. From 2010, Hockney used an iPad, whose larger display expanded his artistic repertoire and enabled an even more complex interplay of color, light, and line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach image in this book captures a fleeting moment as Hockney saw it through a window in his house in Yorkshire: from the glowing sunrise or lilac morning sky to the peaceful night view or the sudden arrival of spring. Drops on windowpanes, distant lights at night, reflections on vases, and a variety of plants on the windowsill form fine details. In 120 drawings from 2009 to 2012, curated by the artist himself, we experience the passage of time through David Hockney’s eyes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis artist’s book, which first appeared in an exclusive, signed edition, now returns as an unlimited edition. The still generous XL format presents Hockney’s impressions in brilliant resolution. This offers the perfect opportunity to heed the advice of the Times critic about this book: “If you want to receive a bouquet from David Hockney, here is your chance.”\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taschen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57131206476120,"sku":"9783836593922","price":100.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/8464\/0856\/files\/9783836593922.jpg?v=1776463095"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.plasticbooks.uk\/en\/collections\/libros-david-hockney.oembed","provider":"Plastic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
