While looking for something else, I came across this short, tiny-size film of David Hockney discussing the thinking and process behind my favorite of his photographic collages, Pearblossom Hwy. Ten days of shooting! 200 shots for the sky alone! I always enjoy hearing Hockney speak about his work; he's always enlightening without sounding pretentious or self-aggrandizing. Looks like he's got an official website now, too -- oh, my, gorgeous stuff there -- and plenty of YouTube videos.
Pearblossom Hwy., 11 - 18th April 1986, #2, at the Getty. The original is 78 x 111 inches.
