Description

Published in association with the Fondation Louis Vuitton, Paris, this stunning book offers a visually engaging and detailed journey through Hockney's extraordinary life and career.

Published in association with the Fondation Louis Vuitton, Paris, to coincide with their major 2025 David Hockney exhibition, this vivid book charts the life and work of one of Britain’s most popular and significant artists. Expertly written by preeminent curatorial experts, art historians, and critics including Sir Norman Rosenthal, Sir Simon Schama, and Fiona Maddocks, this definitive survey combines a curated selection of archival photographs and eye-catching artworks presented in a lavish, large-format book to offer a visually engaging and detailed journey through Hockney’s remarkable life and career.

Following an introduction that offers an overview of Hockney’s life and work, a series of chapters explore in detail the important moments and signature styles and preoccupations of the artist’s varied career, from his early life in Bradford and London through his years in California to his later life in Bridlington, Yorkshire, and Normandy. Several of the chapters are arranged thematically according to artistic subject matter and medium, ranging from still lifes and portraits to his much-loved landscapes and stunning designs for opera. A final chapter explores Hockney’s engagement with new technology, particularly the iPad, demonstrating the endless inventiveness, curiosity, and creativity that have characterized Hockney’s work over the decades.

Compiled with the full involvement of David Hockney and his studio, and with a large-scale landscape format with a selection of gatefolds that enables the reader to revel in the art, this is the most important book on Hockney’s entire career to have been published, and will appeal to the many fans of the artist’s work across the globe.
