David Hockney : Moving Focus

David Hockney's (1937-) work has delighted and challenged audiences for sixty years, and celebrated artworks from throughout his career are at the centre of Tate's collection.

This book features over one hundred of these paintings, prints, drawings and photographs. Seen together, they demonstrate the artist's changing sources of inspiration and, crucially, the direction in which his work continues to move.

Beginning in the 1950s when he made his first steps to becoming a modern artist, this volume includes Hockney's famous depictions of the Los Angeles cityscape, his much-loved portraits from the 1970s, and more recent landscapes and digital images that reflect his ever-present concern with time, space and perspective.
