David Hockney RA
 
Biography
 

1937, Bradford.  Hockney had formal training at Bradford College of Art, and then the Royal College, when his painting began to attract the attention of critics and collectors.  He was associated with the Pop Art movement but in his experimentation with different styles he showed an astonishing originality.  In 1963 he visited the U. S. A. which led to his series of etchings "The Rakes Progress".  His printing career took off after he visited California when he worked at the studios of Gemini GEL in making remarkable etchings and lithographs which included meticulous portraiture, still life's and stylised landscapes.  After working in California for many years he has now returned to live and work in London.  He is a truly international figure with a prominent place in 20th Century art.
