Meaning & Analysis

The display of geometrical forms towards the bottom of the image, an explicit reference to Cubism and Picasso’s fascination with fragmentation and abstraction, in particular signals Hockney’s need to embrace a new, imaginative vision. The artist commented in this context: “In a way, what I have been trying to move away from is a fixed viewpoint. Well, that kind of line drawing on the whole works because you feel it’s accurate, you feel the line has got the volume, or the line has got the person. The line is doing all the work. The viewer knows that. And somehow the way the line is used there I feel I’ve explored. I’d rather explore it another way now.”

  • British-born artist David Hockney is a kaleidoscopic force in the art world. Born in 1937, Hockney's vibrant palette and innovative techniques have left an indelible mark on contemporary art. A pioneer of the British Pop Art movement in the 1960s, he seamlessly transitioned through various styles, from photo collages to vivid landscapes. Renowned for his exploration of light and space, Hockney's versatility extends to painting, printmaking, photography, and stage design.
