The latest addition to the 'Lives of the Artists' series: highly
readable short biographies of the world's greatest artists David
Hockney is the most famous living British artist. And he is
arguably one of the more famous American artists as well. Emerging
from the north of England in the 1960s, he made quite a splash in
Swinging London as a portaitist, and went on to make a even bigger
splash in Los Angeles when he moved there in the 1970s. His
figurative paintings of the 1970s and 1980s captured the zeitgeist
of West Coast living, while he also explored new avenues by
constructing mosaics out of polaroids. By the beginning of the
millennium, he returned to his Yorkshire roots, embarking on a new
period of painting. This came to an end with the death by
misadventure in his home of a young studio assistant in 2013. He
went 'home' to LA and has in the intervening years begun a new
period of contemplative portraiture.
