From everyday observations - ‘The eye is always moving; if it isn’t moving, you are dead’ - to artistic insights such as, ‘painted colour always will be better than printed colour, because it is the pigment itself’, David Hockney has a knack for capturing profound truths in pithy statements. This anthology of quotations ranges across topics including drawing, photography, nature, creativity, the internet, and other image-makers including Caravaggio, Cezanne and Walt Disney. A delightful and engaging overview of the artist’s inimitable spirit, personality and opinions.
