Hockney is known for his bright colors and maximalist paintings, but did you know he also had two dogs that he was absolutely obsessed with? We learn all about his lovely pups, Stabley and Boodgie! Plus, we learn more about "sausage dogs" and why they have such a unique body type! Help support this show and unlock bonus content! Become a member at https://maximumfun.org/joincreatures
Kimi sanatçılar öldüklerinde geride eserlerini bırakırlar. Kimileri ise eserlerinden daha büyük bir bakış biçimi bırakır. David Hockney ikinci gruptandı. Onun ardından yalnızca Los Angeles yüzme havuzlarını, Yorkshire tepelerini, Normandiya bahçelerini ya da parlak renklerle kurulmuş portreleri konuşmak yetmez. Hockney'nin asıl mirası, dünyaya bakmanın hâlâ mümkün, hatta gerekli olduğunu bize inatla hatırlatmasıydı.

David Hockney is remembered for swimming pools, sunlight, and some of the most recognizable images in modern art. Less often discussed is how deeply his work was shaped by the politics of the naked body. From underground physique magazines to gallery walls around the world, Hockney helped move unclothed bodies out of the shadows and into public view, treating them not as scandalous subjects but as part of everyday life.More at www dot planetnude dot co.

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.Hockney studied at the Royal College of Art before moving to Los Angeles in the 1960s. The light and lifestyle of California had a profound effect on his work, using acrylic paint he worked on large portrait studies before turning to prints and photocollages in his later career. He used digital applications extensively in the final decades of his career and returned to the Yorkshire landscapes of his childhood with large en plein air pieces. He was also a celebrated operatic stage designer. He exhibited internationally with several important retrospectives at leading institutions and was the recipient of major civic and institutional honours.

Vi är på Engelsbergseminarium. Och se på fan: ett nytt Folkparti. Inget vi tror på, riktigt. På grund av SD:s sabotage av kvittningssystemet föll regeringens illusion av att de har en stabil majoritet i riksdagen: liberaler som inte kunde kvitta ut sig tvingade regeringen att dra tillbaka förslaget om fängelse för 13-åringar. Det har bakats bröd på surdeg med svamp från den 5000 år gamla ismannen Ötzi. Mums? Frans Wachtmeister skriver bra om nativitet i Fokus. Susanna berättar om sin glädje över att vara mamma. Ska man verkligen få köra elsparkcykel full? Edvin Törnblom intervjuar partiledarna i DN även när partiledarna inte kommer. Typiskt DN. Inga-Britt Ahlenius har fått medalj av kungen och skriver som vanligt bra om kommunal korruption. Silvia har också fått medalj av sin man på deras bröllopsdag. Snart midsommar. Vi hyllar måltidshistorikern Richard Tellström. David Hockney har dött. Vi gillar bin. Centern lämnar "klara besked" och allt blir förstås mer snurrigt. Och vi förekommer i månadens utgåva av M Magasin. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Il s'appelle Hussam Abu Safiya, il est pédiatre et dirigeait l'hôpital Kamal Adwan à Gaza, lorsqu'il a été « arrêté par l'armée israélienne il y a un an et demi ». C'est La Croix qui nous raconte son histoire. Celle d'un homme de 52 ans, « devenu le visage des soignants palestiniens prêts à tout pour sauver les victimes de la guerre entre l'État hébreu et le Hamas et de l'offensive militaire israélienne dans la bande de Gaza ». « Des médecins, infirmiers, secouristes eux-mêmes frappés dans leur chair », poursuit le quotidien catholique français. « Après avoir perdu son fils en octobre 2024, dans une attaque israélienne, Hussam Abu Safiya avait été blessé à la jambe un mois plus tard lors d'une frappe sur l'hôpital Kamal Adwan ». Qu'est-il devenu ? La Croix raconte : « Il aura fallu attendre plus de 500 jours pour qu'il réapparaisse brièvement, mercredi, lors d'une audience devant la Cour suprême israélienne… Les traits tirés, le visage émacié et les mains entravées, le pédiatre a comparu dans une tenue blanche de prisonnier, par visioconférence, depuis la prison où il est détenu ». De quoi l'accusent les autorités israéliennes ? « D'appartenir au Hamas ou d'avoir collaboré avec le groupe islamiste palestinien », répond La Croix, qui reprend les propos du pédiatre devant les juges : « Je suis médecin (…). J'ai exercé mon travail conformément au droit international et aux normes humanitaires. Ma détention est injuste et arbitraire ». Hussam Abu Safiya n'est pas un cas isolé, selon La Croix, qui cite une ONG médicale israélienne, selon laquelle « au moins 13 autres médecins gazaouis sont détenus par les autorités israéliennes ». À lire aussiIsraël: détention prolongée pour le Dr Hussam Abu Safiya, directeur de l'hôpital Kamal Adwan à Gaza Démesure L'introduction en bourse de SpaceX suscite de nombreux commentaires dans la presse internationale. « Elon Musk devient le premier trillionnaire grâce à l'envolée de SpaceX lors de son entrée en bourse », titre le Washington Post, « les investisseurs se sont précipités sur l'entreprise, faisant grimper la fortune de Musk au-dessus de 1 000 milliards de dollars ». Entreprise, précise le Washington Post, qui « a levé hier la somme record de 75 milliards de dollars ». Pas d'enthousiasme, toutefois, en France, où Le Monde parle d'une « introduction en bourse démesurée » et ironise sur les « projets irréalistes » d'Elon Musk, qui a notamment promis : « SpaceX veut pouvoir vous emmener sur la Lune, sur Mars, et à terme, au-delà. » Dans un encadré, Le Monde rappelle également qu'Elon Musk est aussi « le propriétaire de X », « qu'il dispose d'un pouvoir sans équivalent pour façonner ce que voient les internautes » et qu'à ce titre, « il a d'ailleurs joué un rôle déterminant dans l'amplification des discours xénophobes liés aux émeutes à Belfast », la capitale de l'Irlande du Nord, qui a connu ces derniers jours des violences visant les immigrés. Avis que partage sans doute le site d'information Médiapart qui, lui, n'hésite pas à parler « de la première introduction en bourse techno-fasciste de l'histoire », « d'un capitalisme irrationnel, destructeur et violent », « assurant la mainmise, sur la société états-unienne, du pouvoir charismatique et délirant d'un homme, Elon Musk ». À lire aussiBourse: SpaceX signe une entrée tonitruante à Wall Street, la fortune d'Elon Musk bondit « La main, l'œil et le cœur » Le peintre David Hockney, considéré comme l'un des plus grands de l'époque contemporaine, vient de mourir à l'âge de 88 ans. Peintre britannique auquel le Times, à Londres, rend hommage, à travers le récit de l'écrivain Melvin Bragg. « Je connaissais David depuis des décennies, raconte Melvyn Bragg, et au fond il n'a jamais changé (…) il a suivi une trajectoire directe, passant du petit garçon errant dans Bradford, en quête d'inspiration, à l'artiste de renommée mondiale capable d'exposer au Louvre ou dans n'importe quel autre grand musée ». « Tout ce dont j'ai besoin (avait-il confié à l'écrivain), c'est de la main, de l'œil et du cœur. » En France, Libération consacre sa Une à une grande photo du peintre en noir et blanc. Avec ce titre : « David Hockney : le dernier plongeon ». Allusion à l'une de ses œuvres colorées les plus célèbres, représentant un homme au bord d'une piscine. Libération ne tarit pas d'éloges, estimant que la peinture de l'artiste anglais « marche à l'optimisme, à la joie de vivre, à l'ivresse de peindre, sans cesse, à profusion (…). Hockney, nous dit le quotidien français, avait le don simple de s'émerveiller. » À lire aussiDisparition de David Hockney, figure majeure du pop art britannique, à l'âge de 88 ans

There have been periods throughout history when cultural aficionados of the time proclaimed that painting was dead! Yet, the artform has risen over and over again. What is it about painting that makes it so timeless and gives it the ability to continuously evolve? Why, after centuries, can we still be awestruck by the right combination of brushstokes? Art critic Martin Gayford has interviewed many artists over his lifetime about their craft. His books explore painting through a multitude of eras and even gives a personal account of what it's like to sit for a painting in Man with a Blue Scarf: On Sitting for a Portrait by Lucian Freud. His latest book, How Painting Happens (and why it matters), compiles wisdom from numerous artists past and present. Martin and Greg discuss the challenges of writing about a non-linguistic medium like painting, the unique, often physical process of painting, and insights Martin has gleaned from his conversations with contemporary artists, including what makes a painting a great one.*unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:The silent intensity of painting16:13: You don't have to talk or put things in words to think. There is such a thing as physical thinking, and painting is probably a very good example of that. That was one of the points that struck me when I was posing for Lucian Freud, which I—was a very long, drawn-out process. As you can imagine, it took about 18 months to produce two paintings. And Lucian was very slow, but it wasn't that he was painting all the time very slowly. Most of the time in a sitting, he'd spend thinking, looking. And then, after quite a while, and mixing up the paints and contemplating the situation—looking at me, looking at the painting—then he'd dart forward and put a stroke on, quite fast actually. But probably 95% of the time, he wasn't doing that. He was considering the situation.Why we still need painting in a world of screens42:43: It's arguable that, therefore, paintings, sculptures, unique works of art are what we need now. 'Cause they're the opposite of phones and screens and endless deluge of imagery and distraction, which the modern world offers us. A painting is—if it's good enough—it's something you can just look at for the rest of your life, and if it's really good enough, it'll carry on being rewarding.Painting as a language without words02:02: Painting or visual art isn't exactly a language. It's certainly not a verbal language, but it's a means of communication. And as such, it doesn't necessarily neatly translate into words.How artists reshape art history to suit themselves39:37: Although artists—practicing artists, rather—may have tremendous insights, and the insights of a kind which nobody else has access to, they're going to see art history and the art, the work of all other artists, from the point of view of their own art. And they'll be utterly out of sympathy, therefore, with quite large sections of the art of the past and of the present. To an extent, that's true with critics. They'll have certain idioms, certain styles, certain media they like more than others. But a critic can be a little bit less prejudiced. Oh, I'd like to think critics can be a bit more open-minded about what they're looking at. An artist will pretty well instinctively refashion the whole of art history so that it leads up to what they're doing today in their studio. But we don't all have to do that.Show Links:Recommended Resources:Lucian FreudPatrick HeronWillem de KooningClement GreenbergTracey EminJames TurrellDamien HirstPierre BonnardBridget RileyPeter Paul RubensRobert RauschenbergGary HumeGuest Profile:Professional WebsiteHis Work:How Painting Happens (and why it matters) Man with a Blue Scarf: On Sitting for a Portrait by Lucian FreudModernists and Mavericks: Bacon, Freud, Hockney and the London PaintersShaping the World: Sculpture from Prehistory to NowVenice: City of Pictures A History of Pictures: From the Cave to the Computer ScreenThe Pursuit of Art: Travels, Encounters and Revelations
