A facsimile sketchbook from one of Britain's most celebrated artists

A vibrant and intimate view of people with whom Hockney has developed relationships over the past 50 years

Following his sweeping exploration of landscape in 2012 at the Royal Academy of Arts, London, published in the phe­nomenally successful David Hockney: A Bigger Picture, this new volume looks exclusively at a new series of portraits that David Hockney, one of the most famous artists in the world, has been painting recently. In 2012, Hockney returned to California, where he had lived and worked for long periods. There followed a series of painted portraits, the subjects of which ranged from studio assistants and office staff to family, friends, and long-term acquaintances. Also included are a number of fellow artists, curators, and gallerists, including John Baldessari and Larry Gagosian. Reproduced in stunning colorplates the paintings are shown alongside revealing images of the works in various stages of development, which provide an exciting insight into Hockney's painterly process. The book is introduced with two important new texts. This vivid series of portraits, executed in bold acrylics, observant and full of life, marks Hockney's vibrant return to Technicolor form.

One hundred years after the Russian Revolution, this comprehensive survey explores all aspects of its groundbreaking art

One hundred years after the Russian Revolution, Revolution: Russian Art, 1917-1932 explores one of the most momentous periods in modern world history through its groundbreaking art. The October Revolution of 1917 ended centuries of Tsarist rule and left artists such as Malevich, Tatlin, Popova and Rodchenko urgently debating what form a new people's art would take.

Painting and sculpture were redefined by Kandinsky's boldly innovative compositions, Malevich's dynamic abstractions and the Constructivists' attempts to transform art into technical engineering. Photography, architecture, film and graphic design also experienced revolutionary changes. These debates were definitively settled in 1932, when Stalin began to suppress the avant-garde in favor of Socialist Realism--collective in production, public in manifestation and Communist in ideology.

Based around a remarkable exhibition shown in Leningrad's State Russian Museum in 1932--which was to be the swansong of avant-garde art in Russia--this volume explores that revolutionary 15-year period between 1917 and 1932 when possibilities seemed limitless and Russian art flourished across every medium. Published to accompany a major exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts, London (the first to attempt to survey the entire artistic landscape of post-Revolutionary Russia), Revolution explores the painting, sculpture, photography, film, poster art and product design of the years after the Russian Revolution.

Including contributions from some of the most prominent scholars in the field (John Milner, Natalia Murray, Nick Murray, Masha Chlenova, Ian Christie, John E. Bowlt, Nicoletta Misler, Zelfira Tregulova, Faina Balakhovskaya, Evgenia Petrova and Christina Lodder), Revolution is a timely and authoritative exploration of both the idealistic aspirations and the harsh realities of the Russian Revolution and its aftermath.

An reimagining of the Grimm fairytales, bringing together the well-known and the less familiar, all in David Hockney's inimitable style

Green decided in the 1960s that since the pictures in his mind have no edges, his paintings should not be contained within a traditional shape either. They have irregularly shaped supports, creating spiky, unpredictable shapes that reflect the unpredictable span of situations and emotions that characterize family life. Green has exhibited across the globe, and was shortlisted for the Jerwood Painting Prize in 1996.
