DAVID HOCKNEY
Saturday 16th August - Sunday 14th September
SIX FAIRY TALES FROM THE BROTHERS GRIMM
English painter, printmaker, photographer and stage designer, David Hockney is the most popular and versatile British artist of the 20th century.

39 etchings, drawn directly into copper plate, illustrating six fairy tales from the Brothers Grimm. Hockney has given each fairy tale his own interpretation; rather than illustrating the stories literally, he has created vivid images to encapsulate a mood or detail. Some of the tales are familiar, like Rapunzel and Rumpelstilzchen; others, such as Old Rinkrank, Fundevogel and The Little Sea Hare are little known.

A Hayward Touring exhibition from Southbank Centre, London on behalf of Arts Council England.

We are always delighted to hear from accomplished local and regional artists who would like to be considered for our exhibitions programme.
