Hollywood has it superstars, and so does the art world. Last Thursday, with the passing of British artist David Hockney at 88, the art world lost one of its biggest superstars.
The British artist, one of the most important and influential of the 20th and 21st centuries, was a referent of the Pop Art movement The Post Die David Hockney, the painter who revolutionized art with his pools and colors first appeared on Junior Report.
British painter David Hockney, who died last week at the age of 88, always saw the brighter side of the world. He wanted people to enjoy his paintings, and he loved his work and his life. Not least because he knew from the start that he could ignore all the ridicule.
