Artist David Hockney on Criticism

Artist David Hockney on Criticism

“You need critics because you need publicity. That’s all they’re doing, really. Serious criticism isn’t done in newspapers. But then I remember Goethe’s comment when critics started at the end of the eighteenth century. He said, ‘Would Shakespeare be able to develop now?’ Because there wasn’t much criticism in Shakespeare’s day. He just did another play and another. If he’d been analyzing all the plays, what would that have done?”
