David Hockney Exhibition Opens at Halcyon Gallery

News summary

David Hockney's recent painting, 'L'Arbois, Sainte-Maxime' (1968), sold for £13.15 million at Sotheby's, contributing to a total of £37.6 million in their contemporary evening sale, which was lower than last year's figures. This auction reflects a challenging period for the art market, with Sotheby's offering fewer lots and a notable absence of emerging artists. Concurrently, the Halcyon Gallery in London opened 'Living in Colour,' showcasing over 150 graphics from Hockney's six-decade career, including prints that capture his innovative use of color and technology. This exhibition emphasizes Hockney's artistic evolution, featuring works from his early etchings to recent digital landscapes. The show runs until December 31 and aims to make Hockney's work accessible to a broader audience, celebrating his status as a leading figure in modern British art. Both events underline Hockney's enduring significance in the art world, with his works remaining highly sought after despite current market conditions.
