Explicit

Explicit Time doesn't exist. We create it, compose a comprehensive picture of contemporary culture. We are exp Why EXPLICIT?

My Dear Friends and every single personality, community, gallery, movement, theatre, band, group, etc. – every one from all those who are living, creating, composing the beautiful content elements of the contemporary culture life – this page named EXPLICIT is supposed sometime to turn in a shape of a magazine embracing contemporary culture life. The content of the EXPLICIT will be built in the way

that the idioms, articles, references, etc. would represent the culture value in parallel with the idea of contemporary time. What makes the decent value of the art work, performance, literature, architecture, fashion, even body culture? Professional artist can’t survive without selling but what makes the difference between the commercial product and true art when both are on the market? Because the history of culture which operates with references to styles and trends proves the significance of evident initiatives and mental provocations. Styles and movements containing passion for claiming new generation always have tried to formulate the idea of a new value along with the determination of the time. EXPLICIT wants to find a platform for a new step in the chain of evolution therefore it would always welcome softer or harsher prevocational ideas and concepts. The modern, contemporary World is like a huge info matrix where nothing stays apart therefore the page format which embraces mainly the circle of my Facebook friends and friends of friends would experiment via the fusion of all cultural genres. EXPLICIT would always appreciate Your initiatives with delivery of new posts and assumptions. Warmest regards – Juris Plesums / EXPLICIT

P.S. EXPLICIT expresses thanks to the young and talanted Hungarian Photo and Graphic Designer Máté Udvaros! He was just very busy therefore we got his designs a bit later but nice and appropriate!

Beloved British artist has died at the age of 88, his publicist confirmed today.

A statement said: ‘The celebrated British artist David Hockney, one of the most important figures in contemporary art in both the 20th and 21st centuries, passed away peacefully at home on 11 June 2026, one month short of his 89th birthday.’

The painter, who is regarded as one of the most well-known and influential artists in contemporary Britain, boasted a career spanning seven decades.

David Hockney was a friend and an incredible painter. I knew him during the 1960s and kept a friendship going till he died on Thursday, the 11th of June. He was very clever witty and fun to be with.

His paintings often gave off a feeling of great joy. Nancy and I enjoyed visiting his studios in California where we took a drive along Mulholland Drive which he made famous all over again in his sensational paintings.

Or in his London studio. The rooms were filled with paintings. Often some of the most recent pictures that he had done. He would talk about them and his very particular views on art. He felt that it was important to see correctly. He wasn’t a great fan of perspective and was always involved in inventing new ways to view the world. His many paintings, drawings, films and other media like iPad drawing he took readily to and mastered.

He was a serious Chain Smoker and believed it was everyone’s right to smoke like the days when he and I had been brought up in smoke filled rooms. We visited him once in Bridlington, Yorkshire. He met us at the train station and drove us to his house in a smoke filled car.

We will miss his fabulous personality, his laconic wit and his erudite views on how to look at the world.

Rest in peace, David. We love you.
