The interview is with portrait artist David Hockney. The topics include drawing, landscape art, a retrospective exhibit of his art in Boston, homoerotic art, his memory of Stonewall, gay activism, tolerance and love, and the idea of distancing in visual art. Hockney comments on the affect of his openness about being gay on his career. He mentions that the inspiration for his art is his experience in the world and recognition of the human condition. The traveling exhibit, "David Hockney Portraits," will be at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston until May 14. |
