David Hockney: Time and More, Space and More...
Time and More, Space and More鈥� presents Hockney鈥檚 recent video and camera-based works in tandem. Making its gallery debut at the center of the exhibition is Hockney鈥檚 multi-part video installation, The Four Seasons, Woldgate Woods, 2010-2011 which was exhibited in 2017 at both Centre Georges Pompidou and Tate Britain. The work is composed of four 9-channel video walls arranged like the four cardinal directions of a compass rose. Depicting the same view down a tree-lined country road in Yorkshire, each season is captured. As Arthur Kolat notes in his catalogue essay, The Four Seasons demonstrates Hockney鈥檚 agility in multiplying time and perspectives -- a skill he honed in the 1980s using polaroid photography. In the video installation, each screen shows a picture in motion, yet the subjects are fairly motionless. 鈥溾�nlike the earlier photo collages which included a multitude of consecutive moments, The Four Seasons includes both consecutive time and simultaneous time.鈥�
