David Hockney: Landscapes in Dialogue

David Hockney is considered one of the most influential artists of the present. In dialogue with selected landscape depictions from the collections of the National Museums in Berlin, both the artist’s engagement with the art of past centuries and parallels to his great models become comprehensible.

The landscape cycle is characteristic of Hockney’s engagement with the natural world of his native Britain. He believed that photography could not capture the beauty of Yorkshire.
