David Hockney

Published by Thames and Hudson, 1980

David Hockney by David Hockney is more than a standard monograph. Created closely with the artist himself, Nikos Stangos has compiled a narrative from around twenty-five hours of taped conversations with Hockney, giving a close to chronological account of his career as an artist. Complimented with a generous number of illustrations, this book contains just about everything you need to know about Hockney’s early, and already well-established practice.
