David Hockney — 23rd March, Flowers in a Milk Bottle
David Hockney

23rd March, Flowers in a Milk Bottle

2021

"23rd March, Flowers in a Milk Bottle" exemplifies David Hockney's embrace of digital technology as a legitimate artistic medium, created using iPad painting tools and subsequently printed on paper in an edition of fifty. The work continues the artist's long standing interest in depicting everyday domestic subjects and floral arrangements, themes that have recurred throughout his career from his early naturalistic paintings to his later digital experiments. By presenting this modest subject matter through a contemporary digital process, Hockney demonstrates how traditional artistic concerns can be explored through new technological means without diminishing their aesthetic or conceptual significance.
