David Hockney Moving Quotations

Art has to move you and design does not, unless it's a good design for a bus.

Drawing is rather like playing chess: your mind races ahead of the moves that you eventually make.

Television is becoming a collage - there are so many channels that you move through them making a collage yourself. In that sense, everyone sees something a bit different.

Time is the great mystery anyway. And it's still the great mystery in the moving picture as well.

The pictures on the walls aren't like movies. They don't move, they don't talk, and they'll last longer. They will last longer.

We all know a mirror reflects us, if you look in it. If you move, the reflection moves. If you project from a mirror, meaning it will project an image, it's nothing to do with you. The world seen by nobody.

The editing of moving pictures is geared toward the single image. You'd have to edit things in new ways.

I think we're in a very exciting time - visually, I think we are. I've not got a crystal ball. I'm not saying I know what the future is at all. In some ways I'm getting quite pessimistic about the future, but in other ways I think it might get better. We are moving into very big changes.
