David Hockney (born 9 July 1937) is an English painter, draughtsman, printmaker, stage designer, and photographer. As an important contributor to the pop art movement of the 1960s, he is considered one of the most influential British artists of the 20th and 21st centuries.
What I didn't know was I was deeply attracted to the big space.
Art has to move you and design does not, unless it's a good design for a bus.
The moment you cheat for the sake of beauty, you know you're an artist.
Nothing has an uglier look to us than reason, when it is not on our side.
What's the whole point of being pretty on the outside when you're so ugly on the inside?
