For over 50 years, David Hockney has been a dominant force in contemporary art. A new career-spanning show at the Honolulu Museum of Art brings the artist back to Hawaii for the first time in many years, with an exhibition of over 100 pieces in various media documenting Hockney’s journey from the 1950s up through the pandemic years.
“We were drawn to different time periods, and making sure we were representing earlier time periods, through to later and different media – the photo collages, the photographs of drawings, and iPad, iPhone, and other digital drawing,” said Katherine Love, a co-curator of the show alongside Catherine Whitney, the museum’s director of curatorial affairs.
