In the past decade, having returned to England after years on the
California coast, David Hockney has focused his attention on both
landscapes and portraits, as well as still lifes all the while
maintaining his fascination with digital technology. The resulting work
is an extravagance of color and light, ranging in dimension from
billboard- to letter-size.
This lush and impeccably produced catalogue
features more than 200 full-color works of art from museum collections
and Hockney’s private studio, including such major new works as "The
Arrival of Spring in Woldgate Wood and Bigger Yosemite". It also
includes multiple-image galleries (spread over gatefolds) of some of his
iPad drawings and self-portraits, plus film stills from the artist’s
"Cubist" movies.
Hockney’s own insight into this latest chapter of his
career is found in an illuminating essay on perspective and is
accompanied by thoughtful commentaries by renowned critic Lawrence
Weschler and art historian Sarah Howgate.
The exhibition is curated by
Gregory Evans.
