    Paper Ephemera. Condizione: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Offered is an original thermal fax of eight pages dated March 1, 1989 and sent by "HOCKNEY L.A." (the David Hockney office located on Santa Monica Boulevard in West Hollywood) presumably to itself, as the fax was obtained at that location. Each page measures 8-1/2" by 11" with eight pages numbering "P.2/9" to "P.9/9" (the transmittal cover sheet is not present). As stated, this is the text of a lengthy interview with David Hockney given by Anders Stephanson on March 1, 1988, which was "occasioned by the vast retrospective of Hockney's work at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. The show will appear later this year at the Met in New York and the Tate in London. Thanks to Sheila Prendiville of LACMA." The interview begins with Anders Stephanson saying "Once you left Yorkshire, you never really settled anywhere until you ended up in Los Angeles. London, in other words, was a mere stop on the way" with David Hockney responding, in short part, "I was eighteen years old on my first trip to London, which is quite old, isn't it? People traveled less when I was young" and ends with Mr. Stephanson saying, "In fact, aside from the technical virtuosity and coloristic splash, there is something else going on in your paintings" with Mr. Hockney responding, "Yes, there is something else going on. I am deeply aware of what's going on" with Mr. Stephanson writing "This is where we need a follow-up!" Provenance: I purchased this fax, along with several others, at a garage sale in West Hollywood in 1991 given by a young man who then worked at Data-Boy, now a long-defunct gay male bar publication, with its office located next to David Hockney's office on Santa Monica Boulevard and who had, on a few occasions, gone through their trash bin and removed several items of paper ephemera such as this one.
