David Hockney 220 for 2020 Unlimited Edition

Now in an unlimited edition: David Hockney’s artist book of iPad paintings, made around a small farmhouse in Normandy during a year of lockdown. His vivid impressions of the changing light and landscape are brought from the glowing screen to the printed volume with a special six-color printing treatment, giving expression to every shade and hue.

He used his iPad to spontaneously depict impressions of the landscape surrounding him, catching the first spring blossoms, the smell of summer, the saturated colors of autumn, and the stark shapes of dark branches in winter time. The 220 (plus four bonus) iPad paintings in this book are printed with six colors to match the richness of the artist’s vision.

A short introduction by Hockney reveals how this planned project became a lifeline during the lockdown, from which he spread his message of hope: “Remember they can’t cancel the spring.”

Product story

David Hockney (born July 9, 1937) is an English painter, draftsman, printmaker, stage designer, and photographer. He first emerged in the early 1960s during the height of British pop, then moved to Los Angeles in 1964, where he famously painted a series of swimming pool pictures. Alongside the classic genres of portraiture and landscape, he always kept evolving his art, using technologies such as Polaroids, photocopiers and fax machines, digital video, or the iPhone and iPad as tools for his painting. Since his first big survey exhibition, which in 1970 traveled Europe from the Whitechapel Gallery in London, he has been one of the most widely shown and popular artists of our time.
