Sounds really good. Another one I’m too far away from. I have a fondness for some of Hockney’s work, though Bacon was rather too dark for me. I did enjoy the film ‘Love Is The Devil’, though it wasn’t generally well received.
I thought that the excellent British cast carried it off well.

It does, doesn’t it? I won’t be able to get there either. Great shame. I haven’t seen Love is the Devil but will add it to my list. I’m not so fond of Bacon’s work either! x

I agree with you about Bacon, and I do love much of Hockney’s stuff. I’m going to look up “Love is the Devil” now as I don’t know of it. Thanks!

I’m rather glad we all agree about Bacon! I always felt it was a lack in me. I can’t pretend to be overly fond of Hockney but I do like some of his work.

I like some Hockney (I enjoyed a recentish exhibition of his at the Royal Academy) although I understand the comments about Bacon. I always thought his works look perfect for analysis, though. I haven’t watched the movie either. Another one to add to my list! Thanks, Sarah and all! (I’m coming back to the UK soon and bringing my mother with me for a few days. Perhaps we can include a trip to London…)

I’ll say! Regarding Bacon’s art, I mean. Perhaps a trip to London and the Isle of Wight?!

I’d heard the exhibition was on but am unlikely to get a chance to see it. It sounds fascinating. Wonder if it might tour to Edinburgh?

You never know. I think all exhibitions should travel.
