Meanwhile, in the life of David Hockney
The whole life1966–1978
Stage designer: “Ubu Roi” and the Glyndebourne operas
Hockney’s first stage designs are for “Ubu Roi” at London’s Royal Court Theatre (1966), followed by Stravinsky’s “The Rake’s Progress” (1975) and “The Magic Flute” (1978) for the Glyndebourne Festival Opera. It is the start of the opera work that will go on in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago and London.
by 1970
A retrospective at London’s Whitechapel Gallery
By 1970 London’s Whitechapel Gallery has organised the first of several major retrospectives of Hockney’s work, which subsequently travel to three European institutions.
1973
Working with Picasso’s printer Aldo Crommelynck
Hockney begins a fruitful collaboration with Aldo Crommelynck, Picasso’s preferred printer: in his atelier he adopts the master’s trademark sugar lift, as well as his system of imposing a wooden frame onto the plate to ensure colour separation. Their early work together includes “Artist and Model” (1973–1974) and “Contrejour in the French Style” (1974).
