What he said about the owl was very interesting.

Indeed. Does Picasso's Bulls Head have more bullness to it? Or even bikeness?

I think Hockney's point underscores the eternal potential of representational art. The artist cannot escape it, and that is why every piece has potential. It doesn't matter how many owl statues preceded Picasso's, that is his owl statue.
