David Hockney, now entering his 9th decade, shows absolutely no evidence of slowing down or losing his trademark boldness. This film features interviews and focuses on two remarkable exhibitions- "A Bigger Picture," which spans a 50 year period revealing Hockney's long exploration with the depiction of landscape. Often created "en plein air ," then refined through memory and imagination the results are thrilling in form, scale and colors. The second exhibition explores portraiture in which 82 different people all pose in the same chair, perching, sprawling, accepting the scrutiny of Hockney's pencil and paintbrush – The results are chromatically superheated yet personal portraits—vibrant and alive.
And Hockney just keeps working.
Mark your calendars – This film will bring light and color to a February day.
