David Hockney. A Chronology. 45th Ed.

One of the most innovative and prolific figures in modern art, David Hockney is presented through both his life and work in a chronological narrative created for this special 45th Anniversary Edition.

David Hockney: A Chronology traces the artist’s career year by year, examining not only the finished works but also the ideas, inspirations, and transformations that shaped his practice. From 1960s London to the iconic swimming pools of California and the expansive landscapes of Yorkshire, the book reveals how Hockney’s visual world evolved over time.

Working across Pop Art, portraiture, landscape, and digital media, Hockney is more than a painter; he is also a lifelong investigator of perception and the act of seeing. His Polaroid collages, iPad drawings, and multi-perspective compositions reflect a constant desire to challenge convention and explore new ways of constructing an image.

Published to celebrate TASCHEN’s 45th anniversary, this edition has been newly compiled from the two volumes of the monumental A Bigger Book monograph. Hockney’s works are presented alongside period texts, critical writing, and the artist’s own reflections, creating a rich and layered context. Supported by portrait photography and exhibition images, the book offers more than an archive—it provides an immersive view into a living, continually evolving artistic practice.
