David Hockney, a contemporary art master, discusses with Martin Gayford, an art critic, the essence of expression that has been a common thread in the visual arts since the beginning of time.
According to David Hockney, the use of pictures is the only way to explain what the eye sees.
But how can we replace a three-dimensional person, object, or place with a two-dimensional painting?
Images, created with paintbrushes, cameras, and computer software, are the key to understanding how we see the world around us and, by extension, how we see ourselves.
This book is a history of painting (images), narrated by a dialogue between prominent leading figures in the art world.
It provides insightful insights, encourages free thinking, and will be of great use in deepening our understanding of the various ways in which reality is represented.
The history of painting cannot be seen by following painting alone. (Art critic, Noi Sawaragi)
