Meaning & Analysis
This signed print by British artist David Hockney was produced in 1973 in an edition of 100. An etching which forms part of the Influences collection, it depicts the artist himself sat face-to-face with one of his greatest inspirations: Spanish artist Pablo Picasso.
Artist And Model is a signed print by much-loved and highly regarded British artist David Hockney. Part of the Influences series, it was released in an edition of 100. Echoing another similar piece in the series, The Student (1973), in which Hockney depicts himself standing next to a bust of one of his greatest inspirations, artist Pablo Picasso, this print sees the Hockney sit face-to-face with the Spanish artist, who had died earlier in the same year. In stark contrast to the formality of The Student, which sees Hockney place his idol on a marble pedestal – a visual metaphor for his indebtedness to the artist, who served as inspiration for many of his wildly-successful artworks – here we are confronted by a view of the pair sat together, engaged in conversation. In a further example of symbolic metaphor, Hockney is nude; sat before the master artist Picasso, he is denuded of his prestige having borrowed many elements of Picasso’s œuvre and using them in his own works. In a further sign of deference towards the superstar artist, Hockney’s figure – positioned to the right of the composition – receives some kind of instruction as Picasso reads from a sheet of paper. With both figures sat at a desk, they are framed by a window and a curtain. It is easy to see traces of some of Hockney’s earlier works in these two motifs, namely the stage curtains of the Hockney And The Stage series, or the trompe l’œil picture frames of A Hollywood Collection.
British-born artist David Hockney is a kaleidoscopic force in the art world. Born in 1937, Hockney's vibrant palette and innovative techniques have left an indelible mark on contemporary art. A pioneer of the British Pop Art movement in the 1960s, he seamlessly transitioned through various styles, from photo collages to vivid landscapes. Renowned for his exploration of light and space, Hockney's versatility extends to painting, printmaking, photography, and stage design. A captivating storyteller, his works often capture the essence of modern life with a playful yet profound touch. With a career spanning decades, Hockney remains an enduring visionary in the ever-evolving art world.
