This exhibition, the largest retrospective print exhibition of David Hockney’s six-decade career, features more than 100 colorful prints, collages, and photographic and iPad drawings in a variety of media. Highlighting some of Hockney’s most celebrated series and individual prints, the exhibition presents a wide range of styles, from the artist’s earliest etchings of the mid-1950s and 60s to his recent experimental iPad drawings.

Hockney (b. 1937) is best known for his vivid presentations of Southern California swimming pools, his intimate abstracted portraits, his playful theater designs, and his expansive landscape panoramas, all represented in this exhibition, which showcases the artist’s lifelong commitment to innovation and experimentation.
