A collection of two extraordinary artists' landscape paintings, with new insight into Vincent van Gogh's influence on David Hockney. Hockney - Van Gogh: The Joy of Nature presents unique insights into the influences of two world-renowned artists. Nature has been a substantial theme for both David Hockney and Vincent van Gogh, one that draws their work together―Hockney's Yorkshire landscapes are especially reminiscent of Vincent van Gogh's Wheatfield with Crows and The Harvest―and now, for the first time, art lovers can study their pieces side by side. Presenting paintings, iPad drawings, and sketchbook reproductions, and including work both old and new, this book examines the ways in which both artists use formal elements to create their particular view of the world. An exclusive interview with Hockney and an essay by writer and art critic Hans den Hartog Jager provide a rich analysis of Van Gogh's influence on Hockney. Illustrated in color throughout
