David Hockney Interview: I Am Not an iPad Artist
Фильм және анимация
"I just happen to be an artist who uses the iPad, I'm not an iPad artist. It's just a medium. But I am aware of the revolutionary aspects of it, and it's implications." In this interview artist David Hockney explains what a medium such as the iPad means to him.
David Hockney (b. 1937) also talks about being a practical person, how painting is "an old man's art" and about how you need three things to paint: The hand, the eye and the heart.
The conversation also poses the question: What makes a landscape interesting? Hockney talks about his interest in spaces, colors and the subtle change of the seasons. He finds it interesting to revisit the same place as it changes through the seasons, which is very different depending on where in the world you are. As you move about the landscape of the painting, you will see how it slowly changes from winter to spring.
David Hockney was interviewed by Anders Kold at the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, 2011.

Oh!!!!! Sister Wendy!!! One of THE MOST INTERESTING people I've ever heard speak. Mad about Art and one of the few able to talk about it without sounding either precious or 'full of it.' Wonderful. (She WAS a proper nun. Very definitely. Took vows of poverty and lived in a small, badly insulated caravan in the woods, near her convent). Died a few years ago. Sadly, one of the very few people in the world I was hoping to one day meet.
Really admire Hockney...and his work. Especially his drawings. Love his personality. Very casual and giving.
Thanks David ,lovely to listening to you
He is great. He just tells it how it is. The interviewer seemed a bit uncomfortable.
I love this guy!
Great, thanks so much for this.
thanks for a great interview!
I love the Janet Jackson mics. Nice touch.
I cry as David reminds so much of my pa. My pa had a methodist mother his uncle was the town planner of Sheffield. My pa also won a scholarship to a grammar school in Newark. And even though my pa was humourous like David and he was a rugged individual. My pa was in the foreign office was hard working I always sensed my pa who was not effeminate in any way I sensed he was maybe gay as all his very close bonds were with men. Im a painter and my dad painted and my dad died last year aged 95 and my dad smoked like a chimney. These men although eccentric pride themselves in being practical and they are always solving problems. David was close to his mother as was my dad. I would love love to meet David Hockney and I would love to learn to use the eyepad. You see we can draw but we are not keen on just drswing and art is about unusual composition and colour. We are composers and we dont just want to practise scales.
I love the standing ovation he gets for declaring he wants to go for a pee 😂
Was it dinosaurs, or hippopotami? (I thought the latter). (I remember being taken to see it in 1962... I was five...)

Is that really a relevant comment I wonder?

I disagree; I find the scarf to be an erotic element, that reminds the viewer they are dealing with an artist; a man who has spent his life daring to be a Daniel.
