Hockney, 85, one of the world’s most acclaimed and popular living artists, has collaborated for three years with the team behind the new venue, Lighthouse, which opens in King’s Cross in January . He is the latest artist whose work will receive the immersive treatment, as installation art – which uses augmented and virtual reality – continues to increase in popularity in the UK.
The show, David Hockney: Bigger & Closer (not smaller & further a way) , will allow audiences to travel through Hockney’s most famous work, rarely seen pieces and some newly created material. According to a press release, the artist’s “life-long fascination with the possibilities of new media is given vibrant expression in a show that invites visitors to see the world through his eyes ”.
The show will be made up of six themed chapters, with a specially composed score by the American composer Nico Muhly , and commentary by Hockney himself .
