David Hockney: Time Reclaimed

David Hockney: Time Reclaimed

2017 · 53 min · Documentary

He is a major figure in the pop art movement; one of the most popular and influential artists of his generation. The motifs and colors of his canvasses have been widely reproduced, and are now part of the 20th century art pantheon, changing the way we view the world. Hockney is typically seen as an artist who loves life, a good time, glamour and sex. The highly personal and emotional side of his work is often overlooked, much like the intensity and individuality he has shown in each of his successive periods and styles. Through images, anecdotes, and detailed pictorial analysis, this documentary highlights how the renowned painter defies classification and remains mysterious in many ways: an intense, profound, and infinitely passionate artist.

A secret agent must be solitary and austere, no affections, no ties, no sentimentalities, said a man who should know: Richard Sorge, Stalins master spy in Tokyo. Sorge himself didn't follow those rules at all. He was an eccentric, loved women and alcohol, and was known for his escapades. Perhaps the most ingenious of all disguises. He is considered one of the great masters of his trade.
