Bruno Wollheim Interview
“David Hockney: A Bigger Picture” is one of the best films on my Inspiring Art Documentaries list. It captures Hockney’s return to the Yorkshire landscape of his childhood and his first foray into outdoor painting with stunning results. Really enjoyed putting together this interview with director Bruno Wollheim with behind the scenes insights, clips, photos and a 25% off rental discount for MoMa readers.
