David Hockney
82 Portraits and 1 Still-life |
10 November 2017 - 25 February 2018
Guggenheim Museum Bilbao | Bilbao, Spain |
The Guggenheim Museum Bilbao presents David Hockney: 82 Portraits and 1 Still-life, an exhibition which brings together a unique collection—at once surprising, joyful, and touching—of works by the great British painter. |
With this impressive series, David Hockney brings to light his private universe—his family, his friends and their children—in the creation of a remarkable portrait gallery featuring those who have crossed his path over the course of years and in the vast panorama of the Los Angeles art scene. |
In 2012, the Guggenheim Bilbao presented the artist's monumental landscape exhibition David Hockney: A Bigger Picture. That same year, Hockney left his native Yorkshire to return to Los Angeles. In portraiture he found the calm of quiet contemplation; beginning in the summer of 2013, he created what would become a series of more than 90 paintings, 82 of which are presented in this exceptional exhibition. |
