David Hockney: A Bigger Picture, Royal Academy
The first major exhibition of new landscape works by David Hockney RA features vivid paintings inspired by the East Yorkshire landscape. These large-scale works have been created especially for the galleries at the Royal Academy of Arts and span a 50-year period, demonstrating Hockney’s long exploration and fascination with landscape. The exhibition will include a display of his iPad drawings and a series of new films produced using 18 cameras, which will be displayed on multiple screens and which will provide a spellbinding visual journey through the eyes of the artist.
To make way for St Pancras Station, a graveyard was demolished and 8,000 bodies removed. You can still see a pile of the old gravestones at St Pancras New Church by the Hardy Tree.
