Exhibition Review - Jonas Wood at Gagosian Gallery, London till 19th Dec 2015.
Jonas' paintings look out to a world
tilted on an axis of burgeoning indices,
as he folds the what in folding into fold
and fold again, briefly.- Drenched Co
Comment: "I believe Jonas Wood's best work is based on the ever expanding vocabulary of his interiors, his garden, his memories and the America he loves through the multitude of indexes he nurtures and creates - through the felt, the seen, the remembered, the painted, the paintings painted, the drawings of drawings, the collages, the collages of collages etc. I love his slightly off-kilter interiors best." - FaSa.

A Bigger Message : Conversations with David Hockney
by Martin Gayford
{ a decade's worth of conversations between David Hockney and art critic
Martin Gayford that explore via reflection, anecdote, passion and humour
the very nature of creativity . }
David Hockney’s ‘Bigger & Closer (not smaller and further away)’ immersive exhibition, at London’s Lightroom, behind King’s Cross.
“BMW gave me the model of the car and I kept looking at it and looking at it, and then, I must admit, I also looked at the other Art Cars. In the end I thought, probably it would be good to perhaps show the car so you could be looking inside it.”

The process leading up to the final work lasted several months, as Hockney not only concerned himself with the external surfaces of the car. He persisted in his idea, and endowed his work with an unusual transparency by allowing the inside of the car to be outwardly visible. Stylized intake manifolds of the engine appear on the bonnet, the driver is visible through the door – and, of course, a dachshund, too.
In his opinion, “Driving and design go hand in hand in a way. Traveling around in a car means experiencing landscapes – which is one of the reasons why I chose green as a color.”
There can be no doubt of Hockney’s love of cars. He enjoys driving immensely, especially when it takes him through the hilly countryside along the winding roads of California, his chosen home.
He is extremely fond of listing to classical music on the road. Clearly a person who understands how to live and enjoy life. His sensitive and equally distinctive perception of the experience of driving has led to a powerful interpretation of that experience.
Hockney’s personal resume on his work for BMW is unusually short, and yet it says all we need to know:
“It was lots of fun.”
“The car has wonderful contours and I followed them,” says David Hockney of the BMW 850CSi he designed. He admits to having playfully “destroyed” the outer surfaces of the car, whilst at the same time he respected its overall design.
