David
Hockney has commanded greater popular acclaim internationally than
any other British artist this century. Marco Livingstone explores
the relationship between Hockney's art and his life, and charts the
shift in Hockney's work from the early 1960s to his renewed absorption
with inventions and artifice since the mid-1970s, his brilliant photographic
collages and his theatrical designs for the stage.
