Neuware -Als David Hockney das iPhone als neues Medium entdeckte, eröffnete es ihm völlig neue künstlerische Möglichkeiten. Der Bildschirm bot ungemischte Farbtöne für eine besonders nuancierte Darstellung reinen Lichts. Im Frühjahr 2009 fertigte er seine ersten digitalen Gemälde an, in denen er die Morgenlandschaft in kräftigen Linien und schillernden Farben wiedergab. Ab 2010 nutzte Hockney ein iPad, dessen größeres Display sein künstlerisches Repertoire erweiterte und ein noch komplexeres Zusammenspiel von Farbe, Licht und Linie ermöglichte.Jedes Bild in diesem Buch fängt einen flüchtigen Moment ein, wie ihn Hockney durch ein Fenster in seinem Haus in Yorkshire gesehen hat: vom glühenden Sonnenaufgang oder fliederfarbenen Morgenhimmel zur friedlichen Nachtansicht oder der plötzlichen Ankunft des Frühlings. Tropfen auf Fensterscheiben, ferne Lichter in der Nacht, Spiegelungen auf Vasen und eine Fülle von verschiedenen Pflanzen auf dem Fensterbrett bilden feine Details. In 120 Gemälden aus den Jahren 2009 bis 2012, vom Künstler selbst zusammengestellt, erleben wir den Lauf der Zeit durch David Hockneys Augen.Dieses Künstlerbuch, das zuerst in einer exklusiven, signierten Edition erschien, kehrt jetzt als unlimitierte Ausgabe zurück. Das nach wie vor großzügige XL-Format präsentiert Hockneys Eindrücke in brillanter Auflösung. So bietet sich die perfekte Gelegenheit, den Rat des Times-Kritikers zu diesem Buch zu beherzigen: 'Wenn Sie einen Strauß von David Hockney geschenkt bekommen möchten, ist hier Ihre Chance.' 192 pp. Englisch.…

“For me, it's really the joy of looking out into the world and getting this positive energy... It's opening up our vision, and how we look.”
―David Hockney
When David Hockney discovered the iPhone as an artistic medium, it opened up entirely new possibilities for his art. He made his first digital paintings in spring 2009, describing the morning landscape in broad lines and dazzling colors directly on a display that offered subtle hues as unmixed expressions of pure light. Then in 2010, Hockney started working with an iPad, and the larger screen expanded his artistic repertoire and enabled an even more complex interplay of color, light, and line.
Each image in this book captures a fleeting moment seen through a window in Hockney’s Yorkshire home: from vibrant sunrise and lilac morning sky to peaceful night-time impressions or the sudden arrival of spring. Fascinating details reveal drops on window panes, distant lights in the night, reflections on vases or an abundance of varied window-sill vegetation. In 120 paintings made between 2009 and 2012, selected and arranged by the artist himself, we experience the passage of time through the eyes of David Hockney.
This artist’s book, which first appeared in an exclusive signed edition in 2020, now returns in a wallet-friendly pocket edition. So now is the perfect occasion to heed the advice of the Times critic regarding this book: “If you would like to be given a bouquet by David Hockney, here is your chance.”

About the Author
David Hockney (1937–2026) was an English painter, draftsman, printmaker, stage designer, and photographer. He first emerged in the early 1960s during the height of British pop, then moved to Los Angeles in 1964, where he famously painted a series of swimming pool pictures. Alongside the classic genres of portraiture and landscape, he always kept evolving his art, using technologies such as Polaroids, photocopiers and fax machines, digital video, or the iPhone and iPad as tools for his painting. Since his first big survey exhibition, which traveled Europe from the Whitechapel Gallery in London in 1970, he is one of the most widely exhibited and popular artists in contemporary art.
