David Hockney is loved by many for his ability to touch the ordinary - what the world mostly consists of. He likes to let it stand and float a little, so that we become involved, because Hockney both offers a motif and that we ourselves involve ourselves in processing what is seen.

In 2007, Louisiana acquired David Hockney's giant painting A Closer Grand Canyon (1998), consisting of 60 smaller canvases put together into one large picture – a work that has since become an absolute masterpiece in the collection.

David Hockney currently resides in Normandy, where he constantly experiments with materials and captures local atmospheres with his fantastic line and sure sense of color.
