In January 2012 the Royal Academy of Arts presents the first
major exhibition in the UK to showcase David Hockney's landscape
work. Vivid paintings inspired by Yorkshire landscape, many large
in scale and created specifically for the exhibition, will
be shown alongside related drawings and films. Through a
selection of works spanning fifty years, this new body of work will
be placed in the context of Hockney's extended exploration of and
fascination with landscape.
Highlights will include three groups of new work made since
2005, when Hockney returned to live in Bridlington, showing an
intense observation of his surroundings in a variety of
media. The exhibition will reveal the artist's emotional
engagement with the landscape he knew in his youth, as he examines
on a daily basis the changes in the seasons, the cycle of growth
and variations in light conditions. The exhibition will take the
visitor on a journey through Hockney's world.
