David Hockney. My Window

Product Information

In 120 iPhone and iPad drawings, the artist records his perceptions of the world from the window of his Yorkshire home.

David Hockney's "My Window (set of 4)" is a captivating limited edition print that offers a glimpse into the artist's personal perspective. Even with his relocation, the visual allure of his earlier love, the East Yorkshire Wolds, remained evident in his work. Hockney, visiting London from his home in Los Angeles, beamed with pleasure as the window was revealed for the first time on Wednesday.

When David Hockney discovered the iPhone as an artistic medium, he opened up entirely new possibilities for painting. Regardless of being an elderly gentleman, the artist superbly and meticulously depicts everyday objects, capturing the everyday activity of self-observation and self-articulation. He first emerged in the early 1960s during the height of British pop, then moved to Los Angeles in 1964, where he famously painted a series of swimming pool pictures.The terminology is at times used by artists to point to the similarities that exist between post-modernism and late-modernism though some differences exist. The marriage of art and technology became an ongoing fascination—he used laser fax machines and laser printers in 1990, and in 2009 he started using the Brushes app on iPhones and iPads to create paintings. When he finished, however, he recognized the collage as an art form unto itself, and began to create more.
