Peter Webb examines the life and work of this 20th century English artist from his childhood in Bradford, through his time as a student at London's Royal College of Art and his years in California, up to his designs for the production of "Tristan and Isolde". Whilst researching this book, Webb talked to both Hockney and his family and has included many previously unpublished photographs. By relating the events of Hockney's life to his pictures, Peter Webb attempts to put a new perspective on Hockney's work. Peter Webb is author of "The Erotic Arts" and "Hans Bellmer".
