Life of David Hockney : a novel / by Cusset, Catherine,1963-author.(CARDINAL)392728; Fagan, Teresa Lavender,translator.(CARDINAL)547069; Translation of:Cusset, Catherine,1963-Vie de David Hockney.;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 179-181)."With clear, vivid prose, this meticulously researched novel draws an intimate, moving portrait of the most famous living English painter. Born in 1937 in a small town in the north of England, David Hockney had to fight to become an artist. After leavinghis home in Bradford for the Royal College of Art in London, his career flourished, but he continued to struggle with a sense of not belonging, because of his homosexuality, which had yet to be decriminalized, and his inclination for a figurative style ofart not sufficiently "contemporary" to be valued. Trips to New York and California--where he would live for many years and paint his iconic swimming pools--introduced him to new scenes and new loves, beginning a journey that would take him through the fraught years of the AIDS epidemic. A compelling hybrid of novel and biography, Life of David Hockney offers an accessible overview of the painter who shook the world of art with a vitality and freedom that neither heartbreak nor illness nor loss could corrode"--

Francis Bacon : revelations / by Stevens, Mark,1951-author.(CARDINAL)271834; Swan, Annalyn,author.(CARDINAL)271833;
Includes bibliographical references and index."A decade in the making: the first comprehensive look at the life and art of Francis Bacon, one of the most iconic painters of the 20th century--from the Pulitzer-prize-winning authors of de Kooning: An American Master. Francis Bacon created an indelible image of mankind in modern times, and played an outsized role in both English art and life--from his public emergence with his legendary Triptych of 1944 (its images "so unrelievedly awful" that people fled the gallery), to his death in Madrid in 1992. He was a free spirit and unabashed homosexual at a time when many others remained closeted, and his exploits were as unforgettable as his images. He moved between the worlds of London's Soho and East End, the literary salons of London and Paris, the homosexual underground of Spain, the south of France, Tangier, and cities everywhere. Through hundreds of interviews, and extensive new research, the authors probe Bacon's childhood in Ireland (he earned his father's lasting disdain because his asthma prevented him from hunting), his developing homosexuality; his early design career--never before explored in detail; the formation of his artistic vision; to his early failure as an artist; his uneasy relationship to American abstract art; his improbable late emergence onto the international stage as one of the great visionaries of modern art. In all, Francis Bacon: Revelations gives us a more complete and nuanced--and more international--portrait than ever before of this singularly private, darkly funny, eruptive man and his equally eruptive, extraordinary art"--

I've seen the future and I'm not going : the art scene and downtown New York in the 1980s / by McGough, Peter,1958-author.(CARDINAL)227015;
"Peter McGough--half of the team of McDermott & McGough, artists known for their painting, photography, sculpture and film--writes about the trauma of growing up gay in 1950s suburbia; about the East Village art scene of the 1980s when he knew Keith Haring, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Andy Warhol, Jeff Koons and Julian Schnabel; and about his meeting David McDermott who would profoundly change his life by insisting they dress, live, and work like men in the Victorian era. From then on, wherever they lived--in New York City or in upstate New York--they lived without electricity or any other modern conveniences. Their art, called "Time Maps" was concerned with sexuality, bigotry, and AIDS, and their photography--using cyanotypes and platinum plates--had great success at major galleries and museums around the world. Eventually, however, McDermott's incendiary temper and profligate spending would bankrupt them: McDermott would move to Dublin, and McGough, trying to work in New York, would discover that he had AIDS. I've Seen the Future and I'm Not Going is a poignant, often devastating, often humorous, entirely singular memoir"--

A queer history of the United States / by Bronski, Michael.(CARDINAL)348455;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 244-260) and index.The persecuting society -- Sexually ambiguous revolutions -- Imagining a queer America -- A democracy of death and art -- A dangerous purity -- Life on the stage / life in the city -- Production and marketing of gender -- Sex in the trenches -- Visible communities / invisible lives -- Revolt / backlash / resistance."A Queer History of the United States is groundbreaking and accessible. It looks at how American culture has shaped the LGBT, or queer, experience, while simultaneously arguing that LGBT people not only shaped but were pivotal in creating our country. Using numerous primary documents and literature, as well as social histories, Bronski's book takes the reader through the centuries--from Columbus' arrival and the brutal treatment the Native peoples received, through the American Revolution's radical challenging of sex and gender roles--to the violent, and liberating, 19th century--and the transformative social justice movements of the 20th. Bronski's book is filled with startling examples of often ignored or unknown aspects of American history: the ineffectiveness of sodomy laws in the colonies, the prevalence of cross-dressing women soldiers in the Civil War, the effect of new technologies on LGBT life in the 19th century, and how rock music and popular culture were, in large part, responsible for the great backlash against gay rights in the late 1970s. More than anything, A Queer History of the United States is not so much about queer history as it is about all American history--and why it should matter to both LGBT people and heterosexuals alike"--Provided by publisher.
