"I think my whole work was made for this SUMO. I'm rather impressed now with all the work I've done."

Yeah, we think David Hockney should be feeling himself. The man is among the top artists living today and has maintained that position for over 60 years with his ever-fresh take on painting, photography, printmaking, and stage design. He is a true gift to the art world and his new Bigger Book is an art work in itself.

Dare we say the $2,500 price tag for the book is totally worth it? We do.

Each turn of the 498 pages reveals use of vibrant colors and special perspective with collages, photo-composites, drawings, multi-media video works, and even iPad drawings. At 19.6 x 27.5 in size with 13 fold-outs, you can see the details of his strokes like never before.

If you're not ready to buy your own signed copy, there's another option: You can visit LA's Taschen Gallery where the walls are covered from floor-to-ceiling with with pages ripped directly from the giant limited edition.
