Description
Discover the early works of two post-war painting giants in this beautifully illustrated book. In 1958, young David Hockney was inspired by Alan Davie's landmark Abstract Expressionist paintings at Wakefield Art Gallery.
The book explores the points of convergence and divergence between these two artists' styles, revealing new relationships and continuities that push beyond traditional interpretations of British art history. With a richly illustrated text, it offers a fresh perspective on an important aspect of their careers.
