Interview with David Hockney at Richard Gray Gallery

On the occasion of his solo exhibition at Richard Gray Gallery, David Hockney joins us to discuss his recent work. Hockney shares his thoughts about the experience of seeing from a multitude of vantage points, and how time and space is captured through photography.
At Richard Gray Gallery's Gray Warehouse, 'Time and More, Space and More...’ surveys the recent video and photographic works of David Hockney. Making its gallery debut at the centre of the exhibition is Hockney’s multi-part video installation The Four Seasons, Woldgate Woods (2010-11), which was exhibited in 2017 at Centre Georges Pompidou and Tate Britain. The work is composed of four 9-channel video walls and arranged within the space like the cardinal directions of a compass rose. Depicting the same view down a tree-lined country road in Yorkshire, each wall distinctively captures one of the four seasons. The video installation conveys Hockney’s agility in multiplying time and perspectives - a skill he honed in the 1980s using polaroid photography. As Arthur Kolat notes in his catalogue essay, ‘Unlike the earlier photo collages which included a multitude of consecutive moments, The Four Seasons includes both consecutive time and simultaneous time.’
‘David Hockney: Time and More, Space and More...’ runs at Richard Gray Gallery’s Gray Warehouse location, Chicago, 13 September - 21 November, 2018.

Mr. Hockney is a genius and great painter who has adapted to the ever changing world we live in. Being a painter it is inspiring to hear Mr. Hockney explain his vision on painting and life. Love is quote I Live in the Now!
