Geometry and immobility characterize the visions that our century constructs around the theme of the pool. If Parrish paints basing on a camera snapshot, Hockney depicts a distinct construction of a landscape, such as California, seemingly embroidered by a myriad of sky-blue mirrors.
Con Hockney si potrebbe affermare che Hollywood è una piscina, al punto che Bigger splash è diventato il simbolo dello stile di vita californiano. L’immagine pubblicitaria, spesso all’origine di queste invenzioni, si trasforma in nitida geometria dove il monocromo delle avanguardie si coniuga con un’iconografia che diventa allegoria.
With Hockney one can affirm that Hollywood is a pool, to the point that A Bigger Splash has become the symbol of the Californian lifestyle. The advertising images, often at the beginning of these inventions, transform themselves into distinct geometry, where the monochrome of the avant-garde connects with iconography that becomes allegory.
