Considered on of the most influential British artists of the 20th century, Davis Hockney has been a pop art legend since the 1960s. Hockney studied at the Roya College of Art and was featured along with other pop artists in the exhibition New Contemporaries, which brought with it the arrival of Pop Art to Britain. Hockney’s work ranges in content from still lifes to landscapes, portraits of friends, dogs, and stage designs. Hockney has participated on over 400 different exhibitions and has been highlighted by the National Portrait Gallery in London. Much of his art is still displayed across the world including the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, The Tate Modern in the UK, as well as the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York.
