A HISTORY OF PICTUR BY DAVID HOCKNEY AND MART GAYFORD – REVIEW
Early this book, Mart Gayford observ that artists’ liv often don’t make good bgraphy… not very much happens the way of cint. * martin gayford david hockney *
Photograph: Jean-Pierre Gonçalv Lima/© David HockneyGayford is a thoughtfully attentive cric wh a pac ame of reference and his brief excursns to ho art, Hockney’s readg (Flbert, Prot, Julian Barn), his mil tast (Wagner), and that almost five Hockney subject, the pictn of water – scribed by Hockney as always a “nice problem“ for an artist – nsistently illumate both Hockney’s work and the other artists his work brgs to md.
(It should be add that the rear n see the prehensive illtratns almost everythg Gayford mentns. )While Pisso is the artist Hockney most often talks about, Gayford c more often another favoure, Van Gogh, who liked to attach ltle sketch to his letters much like Hockney do wh his emails. The unpreposssg flat farmland of Hockney’s Yorkshire and now Normandy would siarly be seen as not obvly ripe lotns for such close spectn, but as Gayford says, the moral is that “ is not the place that is trsilly tertg; is the person lookg at ”.

* martin gayford david hockney *
Sad sacks who thk that Brex marks the shrkage of Bra would do better to nsir that, through people like Hockney, Bra has been nquerg the world for years; a new imperialism, and all done by Gayford is Hockney’s partner this magic flight of a book and he do a good job of playg the normal one.
Gayford is the more knowledgeable about the history of patg but Hockney gets beyond scholarly knowledge to the realm of the streamg sparks.
It’s a measure of Hockney’s vividns of perceptn that he n always put a p on Gayford’s knowledge. Sprg Cannot Be Cancelled, a forthg book by the Cambridge-based cric and Hockney rrponnt Mart Gayford (Tham & Hudson, May 11), offers a eper look at the artist’s new Norman phase and his pacy to spire others.

In an earlier book of nversatns, A Bigger Msage, Mart Gayford served as Hockney’s enabler, a ferential Boswell who prompted the loquac Johnson to makg pronouncements; now the cric and the artist have teamed up to discs the history of picture-makg between the first dbs on ve walls and the latt Photoshopped imag on puter llaboratn is unequal and a ltle uneasy. It purports to be the transcriptn of talk, but though we do seem to be listeng to the chatty, whimsil, tape-rerd voice of Hockney – who has a tenncy to repeat himself and to rely, as we all do, on vacuo adjectiv such as “terrific” – Gayford’s ntributns are obvly wrten not spoken, weighed down wh dat, quot and scholarly mutiae.
A BIGGER MSAGE: CONVERSATNS WH DAVID HOCKNEY BY MART GAYFORD – REVIEW
Hockney is anecdotal, Gayford more amic.
Gayford’s task is to assemble the evince that may or may not back up those cheeky assertns. The need for biblgraphil back-up sometim turns Gayford to a drearily discursive schoolmaster, as when he rms the dimmer-wted that “John Locke’s An Essay Concerng Human Unrstandg (1690) was one of the fundamental texts of 18th-century thought the Anglo-Saxon world” styl of the llaborators don’t match, and their mds don’t really meet. Their blocks of text alternate rather than tersect: maybe Hockney adjted his hearg aids and tuned Gayford out.
