TWo Starci sits in a small kitchen in Kensington, as in the 1980s. They make final plans for a Blockbuster exhibition In Paris, dividing his passion for art as a teenager.
“Will be stunning,” he says David Hockney87, still a fight in a wheelchair, a nurse with him. He talks to the legendary curator Sir Norman Rosenthal80, a little deceptive and recovering from cancer. Both, however, have a mind that breaks with witty, miraculous and vim.
Rosenthal, who spent two years out of the box of emissions, Riffs: “Beautiful and It is important, this is the most unusual gathering of Hoponi for generation. “Just a week before the public sees, sort the final details of the largest artist exhibition in the last 25 years:” Hockney 21. century “.
“My friends call me lucky norman and tainting this show just proves that they are right,” says Rosenthal, collecting his final thoughts before he went to Eurostar in front of his opening.
In the sports white shirt, hearing aid, canarine-yellow glasses, and the usual health issues are recognized, and then laughed in Paris, and then laughed in Paris, “and then settle in Paris”, and then Nigerians in Paris, “and then laughed in Paris,” and then intended, “Qatar, the most beautiful cigarette friend, as well as the world’s largest arts star. It isolated from friends in a week to fight with infection in the chest. “It’s just a seven-hour trip by car, and then I’m there,” he explains. Personality force, as well as his artistic vision of smooth; “I’ll never stop painting,” he says. As always, no one or nothing, he won’t stop him to do exactly what he wants. While I can say Parisians, The more changes: It doesn’t doubt it’s going to be there, next week.
This is a two-year project since Hockney (with JP, his dedicated a long-standing French partner, aside, called him not to refuse it: to trickle the bumper in Paris. That call also started an impressive book Rosenthal At Hockey. The show is spectacular, without a saving, a destination event for all art lovers.
“When they called, it was hard to swallow – I was then 78 and I did two more shows, but then I gave instant. There was an education and privilege. I learned even more than I thought [about] How a deep and surprising artist, “Rosenthal said.
“He is Picasso in our time, and when I laughed like Picasso was the Archethathic Artist of the 20th. Century. It is the same with David. They both really looked and showed what they saw and brought joy.”
Rosenthal continues: “He just sees what is in front of him and he’s in pain. The immortalized parts of the Suffolk reaches them, Turner was done by Yorkshire, LA and California. How did Beatrice say in A lot of ada about nothing“” I can see the church in the daylight. “It’s such a beautiful shakes line and what does he see the world correctly. So often artists want to solve problems today, not just seeing the world. He just shows what he is in front of him.”
According to Rosenthal, Hockney changes what we see. Creates a language. He has credited California with swimming pools and palm trees and boys and he did it in Yorkshire with hedges and spring flower and vista. He remembers Hockeney anxiety in Los Angeles when he was preparing to return to the landscapes in Yorkshire. “I liked to worry exactly when it seemed to be a flower of hawglish in Yorkshire in the spring, and that was whatever he cares. It was his Mount Mount the gathering of nature and art and the language they talked to the world then.”
Four hours Rosenthal and Hockney is removed to the home in London Rosenthal, discussing the final details of the play. Rosenthal is the most famous curator of age. His “sensation” sensation from 1981. show the sealed young British artists with the showdvism and intellect and awakened the world of art to the sense of shock as well as new. Millions of people saw Rosenthal-murisoned shows that are equally popular because they are serious – and Hockney wanted to get Rosenthal very much to monitor the show in Paris. It is completely absorbing for both of them.
Showders generally stretch in the last 25 years. Among his 70 deeds is a picture of Lewis, Hockney’s nurse, which, of course, also became a topic as everyone in his life. He looks at the blue sister’s uniform with the Hockney cuddle with the chest, saying “Soon” Hockney: Smoking, Drinking. The second picture is called “David Hocney in the garden so up, up, up, up.” More laughing of his creator. The joy of life and creation and conversations are tangible.
The two men are returning a long way, and their chat is light and found out, from different aspects of what art and can be, who liked in 60 years of friendship. They first met in The Hard Rock Cafe in 1963. years and they both nicely bothered her. Rosenthal remembers, “I was with a friend called Karl Bowen, a painter and Kellogg’s successor who was David Friend and then we all had a very unforgettable face with that peroxide, and, as we know, blondes are all fun!”
Their lives occasionally advocate. The younger man remains in full admiration to this day.
“He’s 87. He smoked, I don’t know, maybe 100 cigarettes a day and still smoking,” Rosenthal continues. “His lungs are not in a good way and accepts that fact. It is a smoking symbol of freedom, to end the package. He is very conscious of his physical fragility, but his mind is clear as his memory.“
As with Moses and Mountains, Hockney’s World is not smaller. He calls the world for him and sends his eyes off his chair, armed always with brush and colors. Concert pianist Yuja Wang came and played in his studio. Others are constantly on the phone. But the picture never stopped. Like Lewis, he has a female sister, Sonia, also sparked in color by their most famous patient. It is also located around the park in its wheelchair, blue glasses and blue-threaded tweeds that match the blue spring sky of London.
“He paints what is in front of him; it is the world of his imagination that takes what is in front of him,” Rosenthal explains. 25 years of landscape and digital and oil and pens and photos: full kaleidoscopic range of Hockney. Rosenthal is a perfect interpreter for him. They are both professional and devastating, showmen and a serious manwho see laughter and light as good corrections for mortality and essential melancholy.
Rosenth’s home is a house from the 18th century in Sohou. It is a museum or perhaps even mausoleum than a traditional home, full of ancient sculptures, ballet shoes and countless facilities. There is even a great painting with you hanging in the shower. Many pictures gave artists who tucked. In short, in his home there is a lack of order and a discipline that is in a complete contrast to their artistic shows.
The product is an escape from the Holocaust, because his parents survived only by coming to the UK from Slovakia and Germany. His grandfather was born in the 1850s. His father head in the Second World War in the Free Czech Republic was the Captain Robert Maxwell, polyme and a war soldier whose reputation was twisted in Vermovis.
“Art is like a bottomless pit,” Rosenthal volunteers. (Hockney doesn’t agree.) “It’s the point of life-life just thinking. I always think life is beautiful why I stopped at the reinforcement people to beat Maseni people and see – in everything?”
David Hockney 25 is on the basis of Louis Vuitton Foundation from 9. April to 31. August
