David Hockney The Arrival of Spring, Normandy, 2020 As the world adapted to lockdown, David Hockney found solace in his new surroundings in Normandy. Witnessing the arrival of spring, he recorded the blossoming landscape on his iPad, a method of drawing he has been using for over a decade. This intimate sketchbook publication showcases 116 of these new iPad drawings, capturing the exuberance of nature with singular skill. The book begins with an interview with the show's curator, Edith Devaney, in which Hockney discusses his heralding of the spring. The publication also features augmented reality, enabling smartphones and tablets to recognize printed images and play a related film or animation. This unique combination of art and technology offers a fresh perspective on the artist's work. David Hockney is one of the most significant British artists of the 20th century, known for his diverse range of artistic pursuits, including painting, photography, collage, and digital illustration. This publication is a celebration of his latest work, produced to accompany a major exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts.
