American Painters: California and the World of David Hockney

Plot

A resident of Southern California since the mid-'60s, English painter, draftsman, photographer, and set designer David Hockney (1937-) is best known for his California series paintings, stage designs, and his work in pop art. Part of the series American Painters, this ten-minute video produced by Lucerne Media provides a comprehensive, introductory look at the works of Hockney, revealing the range of styles and techniques of this contemporary artist -- from his bright and dramatic landscapes of the Santa Monica hills, to his operatic designs, to the cubist-influenced Polaroid photo collages. Lucerne Media has been serving the educational and public library market since 1974. ~ Brooke Hodess, Rovi
