{"product_id":"history-of-pictures-9781419750281","title":"History of Pictures","description":"\u003cb\u003eA compact edition of Hockney and Gayford's brilliantly original book, with updated material and brand-new pieces of art\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Informed and energized by a lifetime of painting, drawing, and making images with cameras, David Hockney, in collaboration with art critic Martin Gayford, explores how and why pictures have been made across the millennia. Juxtaposing a rich variety of images--a still from a Disney cartoon with a Japanese woodblock print by Hiroshige, a scene from an Eisenstein film with a Velazquez paint­ing--the authors cross the normal boundaries between high culture and popular entertainment, and argue that film, photography, paint­ing, and drawing are deeply interconnected. Featuring a revised final chapter with some of Hockney's latest works, this new, compact edition of \u003ci\u003eA History of Pictures \u003c\/i\u003eremains a significant contribution to the discussion of how artists represent reality. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/mocorrectionsbookstore.com\/\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-10407941\"\u003eDavid Hockney\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/mocorrectionsbookstore.com\/\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-10385990\"\u003eMartin Gayford\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Harry N.
