Portrait of David Hockney
- Director: David Pearce
CGiii Comment
A skill-less, life-less portrait of Hockney...
It's simply a wasted opportunity...but, Mr Hockney has got to be the most filmed artist alive...so, there are plenty of other films out there...all of them better than this nonsense.

Filmed at the time Hockney was painting Mr and Mrs Clark and Percy, Portrait of David Hockney is made up of a limited number of shots, observing the periphery details of his flat and studio. Each view is held so as to focus on its particular qualities and composition and, with the accompanying soundtrack of off-screen phone calls, conversations and musings, builds up a picture of Hockney’s daily life.
