David Hockney

Emma Thomas

This monograph accompanied a major full-career retrospective of the work of David Hockney held at Tate Britain in spring 2017. Large, full-bleed images of works feature throughout. The opening image is taken from one of Hockney’s most recent series of paintings, reflecting the fact that Hockney remains prolific. Throughout the book, works have been laid out with a scale relationship to each other – a challenging approach to implement, due to the extreme diversity of scale within Hockney’s work.
