New HOCKNEY PAINTINGS (never get old) @ PACE in Chelsea

The PACE Gallery on W 25th is presenting Hockney's newest paintings.  Hockney (British b. 1937) shows no signs of slowing down.  This collection is the 1st exhibition of new works since his return to LA from England.   There are new portraits in this collection along with some works of photography.  Pushing 80, Hockney is fascinated with current technology as seen in his recent iPad works: The Arrival of Spring.  Included in this exhibit are 5 photographic drawings on high-definintion screens.  New  technology is embraced by Hockney with masterful & absorbing effect.  The most arresting works in this show for me are the dancer paintings referencing Matisse's iconic painting DANCE.  Hockney's vibrant colors, shadowing & bodily configurations give a kinetic & joyous feel to these works.  Each figure has a unique position in space & relation to the other figures.  These latest works by Hockney are dynamic.  Do not miss the opportunity to view David Hockney Some New Painting (and Photography.)
