Footballers getting millions a year is obscene. There are a lot of obscenities out there, but fine art isn’t one of them. I do agree it deserves to be in a gallery though. But that would only be possible if the state funded art appropriately. As I pointed out, as an artist Hockney takes his civic duty seriously and as such deserves to be recognised. I am not sure who owned this painting, but strongly suspect it was a private sale. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
