“Review finds the iPad paintings underwhelming but cheerful, emphasising Hockney’s continued curiosity and productivity.”
“Mixed review: the 90-metre iPad frieze is ambitious but less convincing in the gallery than on screen.”
“"If you didn't know that David Hockney was 88, you might think he was in his prime," said Alastair Sooke in The Telegraph. The veteran artist has lately been producing and exhibiting work at a prodigious rate, and less than a year after his "colossal" retrospective in Paris, he has returned to the UK for a "magical, moving" exhibition, "A Year in Normandie and Some Other Thoughts about Painting", at London's Serpentine North Gallery.”
“FT is positive, describing the seasonal frieze as a thrilling hymn to the seasons.”
“The Times calls the show immersive and emotionally intensifying, possibly a late-career swansong.”
