David Hockney Primary Research
To do this type of research I am limited in what I can do. What I decided to do was draft a short survey, in which I would ask people what they thought about Hockney's work. Something I found with his work, when asking friends, is that most people are familiar with Hockney himself, but wasn't very familiar with his work. I asked 'what are your views on Hockney's work?' And I'd often be forced to show them his work because they didn't know his work but knew him. A commen response was simular to mine, in that they didn't quite understand the point of distorting the model. One person raised the point that he is trying to incorporate the idea of three dimensions in a medium that mainly consists of two dimensional work. This person also recognised that Hockney is clearly using Picaso for his inspiration
