From 1998 to 2017, Jean Fremon visited David Hockney in his studio in Los Angeles, Bridlington and London. Intimate observation mingled with spirited conversation, a tableau of vision, meditation, and passion for invention. Jean Fremon's poetry, fiction, and art criticism have appeared in more than 20 volumes. He is the President of the Galerie Lelong in Paris. This book is translated from the French, David Hockney a l'atelier (L'Echoppe, 2017).
