Om David Hockney

De formative år og den kunstneriske uddannelse

David Hockney blev født i Bradford, Storbritannien, og voksede op i en husholdning med fem børn. Hans far, Kenneth Hockney, arbejdede som kontorassistent og havde været samvittighedsfri vægter under Anden Verdenskrig, mens hans mor, Laura, var metodist og streng vegetar. Hans tidlige år blev tilbragt i det industrielle landskab i Yorkshire, som var præget af teglstensfabrikker og livlige markeder.

Hans formelle uddannelse begyndte på Bradford School of Art fra 1953 til 1957, hvor han fokuserede på at tegne efter livet og på portrætkunst. Senere flyttede han til London for at studere ved Royal College of Art, hvor han dimitterede i 1962 med en prestigefyldt guldmedalje. I sin tid på Royal College of Art var han tæt forbundet med Pop Art-bevægelsen.

Et skift mod Los Angeles og udviklingen af medier

I 1964 flyttede Hockney til Los Angeles, en overgang der fundamentalt ændrede hans brug af farve og lys. Han blev kendt for sine malerier af swimmingpools, hvor han ofte benyttede akryl for at indfange levende farver og vandets bevægelse. Hans værker fra denne æra udforskede forstads-livets geometri og den måde, lyset rammer overflader på.

Gennem hele sin karriere har Hockney arbejdet med en bred vifte af medier, herunder:

Hans tekniske tilgang har inkluderet brugen af omvendt perspektiv og camera lucida. I de senere år har han taget digitale værktøjer som iPads og forskellige softwareprogrammer i brug for at genfortolke landskaber og indfange det skiftende lys.
