| david hockney is one of the most important artist of the century. |
| what I like from his pictures is an extension of himself,a kind of mirror where the artist is reflected,hidden,masked. |
| his paintings and his photographs are an explanation of modern society and its symbols,the cult objects of mass consumers and objet-d'art eaters. |
| The views are clear and simple,though not naive,since the shapes present a great dramatics and a big deal of anguish. |
| If I include him in an existentialist review,it is because I find an image of assumed self portrait behind the situation,the intention of not describing,but revealing this point of perspective where there is only place for one:the subject |
