David Hockney RIP

I love his moody charcoal drawings.
Fabulous!

That is very sad news. I’ve been to several of his exhibitions.

Duplicate post, not that it matters.

I’ll try once more

Oh good it’s come through -maybe twice now in fact

Oh yes missed it as faffing about with photo . Oh well as you say never mind

Just arrived at our Holliday let to hear the news.
It is an homage to Hockney!
We have walked the wolds and love recognising the art, I also saw his exhibition at the NPG it was wonderful.

No artist has given me so much pleasure.

Here is my favourite of all the DH prints I have in our holiday let.

Lovely Sago - the colours and perspective

The one I like best of his was at the RA exhibition (2014??) I have never er seen it reproduced anywhere.

He certainly made a big splash!

Just searched 'Hockney' on X/Twitter. Most who have posted, have included some amazing paintings of his

Years ago I had some work very briefly exhibited next to his. It was just happenstance as not the same exhibition. Both at Salts Mill.

His early work does make me feel young again.
Happy days.

Mr and Mrs Clark and Percy and the Splash pictures were part of my late teens and twenties.

I went to see the Glyndebourne Opera production 'The Rakes Progress' in 1975. David Hockney designed the scenery and costumes, they were stunning.

RIP DH

That's a real shame. His art was so bright and affirming. RIP

Oh yes I’d forgotten - I saw that at a live outdoor screening in the courtyard at Somerset House. There was an interview with at half time.

Half time? Too much football chat. At the interval ( which may or may not have been half time)

Sorry of course it was the RA not the NPG.

I loved every second.

Such a variety of styles and media he used. Loved his work. The amazing colours. I have a print of The Bigger Splash. He was lovely man apparently too. One of my favourite places is Salts Mill in Saltaire.

I loved seeing his paintings at Salts Mill in Saltaire. He was a colourful character as was his art and will be much missed.

Wonderful painter, I love his work, especially his swimming pool paintings and particularly the one of the fashion designer Ossie Clark sitting with cat on his lap and his wife standing, textile designer, Celia Birtwell. Both fashion trailblazers of their day. Names that will no doubt resonate with the demographic here on GN

Remarkable man. RIP David Hockney

I, too, love his work. We went to an interactive exhibition at the Saatchi gallery some years ago and enjoyed it very much.
A long life, well lived.

I hadn't realised he had been awarded the Légion d'Honneur. There is a lovely obituary in the Ouest France. The people of Calvados loved having him living there as a permanent resident in Normandy.
I understand he had gone back to London this year.
