In "Livingroom and Terrace, July 1986," David Hockney employs an unconventional medium by utilizing a commercial office color copy machine to create this vibrant homemade print, demonstrating his experimental approach to printmaking during the 1980s. The work captures an intimate domestic scene, likely depicting his Los Angeles residence with its characteristic interplay between interior and exterior spaces. Printed across two sheets of Arches laid paper and presented in the artist's original frame, this edition of 60 showcases Hockney's willingness to embrace accessible, quotidian technology as a legitimate artistic tool.
