At 86 years old, David Hockney continues to pay attention to the smallest detail regarding his exhibitions. Writer and gallery owner, Jean Frémon, paints a portrait of this master of reality whom he followed for us from London to Normandy.

“The Impressionists painted the Norman landscape extensively, but not the typically Norman houses,” he points out. For me, he says, they are neither ancient nor modern, nor fairy tale. I live in the present, and I paint the present.”
