The debut volume of the catalogue will be dedicated to David Hockney's paintings, marking the beginning of a 15-to-20-year project that will call for works in due course. The catalogue will be overseen by an editorial and supervisory team including Hockney, his studio assistants, trustees, and experts.
The catalogue will also feature essays by artists and writers providing context for individual pieces. The David Hockney Foundation, established in 2008, owns over 8,000 works by the artist, with substantial gross income in 2021.
The release of the catalogue will serve as a valuable resource for scholars, artists, collectors, and dealers interested in Hockney's work. Notably, Hockney's Portrait of an Artist set an auction record, making him the most expensive living artist.
