David Hockney is considered one of the most influential artists of
the 20th century.
An English-born artist based in Los Angeles, David Hockney is
considered one of the most influential artists of the 20th century.
Poetic and narrative, his work progressed from pop to naturalism to
photo collage - always with a unique, powerful use of light and
color. Most recently, he has devoted his creative energy to stage
design for opera, with a passion and impact reminiscent of Picasso.
His inventive creations have transformed opera into a magical
experience - one to watch as well as to hear. Performances with his
sets - - including a touring exhibition of his models, drawings and
paintings - have taken place across Europe and the United States.
His work has always been critically acclaimed and he has faced no
hardship in his career. Ironically, this passionate music lover is
now going deaf. At the height of his craft, Hockney is in a private
race against time.
